Billy the Kid image sells for more than $2M

None

What is believed to be the only surviving, authenticated portrait of Billy the Kid went up for auction in Denver on Saturday and sold for $2.3 million.

 

The tintype on Saturday evening went to private collector William Koch at Brian Lebel's 22nd Annual Old West Show & Auction, where auction spokeswoman Melissa McCracken said the image of the 1800s outlaw was the most expensive piece ever sold at the event. (AP)
