 Attention�ever since the original and "only authentic" tintype of Billy the Kid sold for 2.3 million dollars in 2011, there has been an epidemic of alleged photographs of Billy the Kid. This plague is just a vain attempt for people to make money. It takes more than just "looking like" Billy the Kid, there has to be strong documented provenance to support the alleged photo. These purported photos HAVE NOT been confirmed by real Billy the Kid historians and experts because they lack the provenance and the historical facts to support it. Yet these purported photos are being presented to the public as authenticated based entirely on opinion and false information by unaccredited parties. Do not be fooled by these bogus claims. The only known photograph in existence of Billy the Kid is the one above. Teenage outlaw of the Southwest who is immortalized in American History Welcome to the most Comprehensive Billy the Kid website on the Net! By Ms. Marcelle Brothers Last website update 10/13/2015 No other historical figure from the Old West has stirred up more controversy and eluded historians and biographers than Billy the Kid alias William H. Bonney. This young man in his short life has established his place in history and legend, but there is more to the myth there's the man, which in my opinion is far more interesting. On this website you'll find plenty of information and learn who Billy the Kid really was and how he became a legend in his own time. *********************************************** **�I don�t blame you for writing of me as you have.
