A guy was watching a documentary and they showed a picture of Pat Garret, the man who shot Billy the Kid, playing croquet.
The guy remarked to his wife that this looked like one of the guys up on their wall, having purchased a bunch of old photos years earlier at a flea market. He paid ten bucks.
I’m not sure why it’s worth millions. There’s the photo right there. Print it out and hang it on your wall.
They look retarded
Every time I see something about Billy the Kid I think of Marty Robbins. Here’s a cool ballad. https://youtu.be/5DIFiHqNkt0
@Am I right: You’re right, they look retarded and were retarded. Ain’t no pic worth a million bucks for retards.
Good for the guy with the picture and an eye for who is in it. I hope he makes a million bucks.
I never realized guys in the Old West used rouge.
Was it to make up for a shortage of women?
Who knows?
🙂
Doesn’t look too much like Kris Kristofferson or James Coburn, but I hope it makes millions for the man who discovered it.
The retarded thing about this is that he came out public with it. Remember the dude who caught Barry Bonds record breaking home run ball? It was reportedly worth several hundred thousands of dollars. Guess who wanted their cut? The IRS of course, even if he kept it and placed it on the mantel. He was basically forced to sell it. Rule of thumb is that if you come across something worth a lot of money, just shut the fuck up and try to sell it under the table.
The one on the end with the mustache might be Pat Garrett, but in better pictures, Pat Garrett was a very good-looking guy.
But which one is Billy? Can’t see him at all.
PS They don’t look like Barry Sullivan and Clu Gulager, either.
PPS Or Thomas Mitchell and Jack Beutel, for that matter
Millions? OK.
I’m just glad that pic ain’t a scratch n’ sniff.
You’d look like a retard too, if you had to stand still for five minutes for an old-time photo
Does he have the glass negative to go with it?
