Artist's Description

The Upham tintype of Henry McCarty, aka William Bonney aka Billy the Kid, the sole authenticated picture of the famous outlaw, sold at Brian Lebel's Old West Show & Auction in Denver in June 2011 for $2.3 million. The pre-sale estimate was $300,000 - $400,000, but Florida billionaire, alternative energy investor and America's Cup winner William Koch finally took it home for eight times that amount.

About David Lee Guss

David Lee Guss

But my first love remains the theater. I acted in numerous amateur productions from 1958 to 1978.

I am the last person cited in Jim Hughes' definitive biography of Gene, as I wrote about attending his final...
