Man Buys Old, Cheap Photo For $2. When He Checks Closer, He Jumps

Fact Checks

Randy did all the research he could. The only original photo of Billy the Kid, the famous Upham tintype, was bought by a collector named Bill Koch at an auction in 2011. I was bought for a staggering fee of 2.3 million dollars. Having no proof of the photographer or the circumstances also meant that Randy and Linda couldn’t prove that their photo was genuine. They weren’t about to give up.
