The Tombstone Epitaph, the Old West’s most famous newspaper, was founded on May 1, 1880, by Wyatt Earp’s lifelong friend, John P. Clum. Visitors to The Epitaph’s free museum can read original reports of the historic Gunfight at the O.K. Corral®, the shooting of Virgil Earp, Tombstone’s Great Fire, and much more. Come tour the historic print shop, which includes the original 1880s hand press and other interesting printing equipment dating to The Epitaph’s earliest days. Still published monthly, The Epitaph is the perfect gift or souvenir, and is full of fascinating articles on the Western Frontier.
