Hello. Long time AZ resident here. I worked @ a western bar in DT Scottsdale back in the late 70´s/early 80´s. It was called the Outrider Saloon on Brown Rd just kitty corner from the Rusty Spur. I was 21 @ the time, bartending & Ralph use to come in just to throw back a few & talked to those who enjoyed listening to his stories. I´m moving out of state & came across a few pencil drawings he made for me & kept them all these years. He sure was a colorful fella. Thank you for sharing your talent & stories with me. ~ Terri Duffey
