The Battle of Ingalls was a gunfight on September 1, 1893 between United States Marshals and the Doolin-Dalton Gang, during the closing years of the Old West era, in Ingalls, Oklahoma.

The Doolin-Dalton Gang had been involved in a number of train robberies and bank robberies, beginning around 1891. The artwork shows how innocents were often the victims of the gang and the final showdown between US Marshalls and the gang.
