Also, i posted a link to some other photos yesterday but the post is gone. Did i do something wrong?

I wonder if this photo is a recreation?

I am in touch with the people who have this photo. They are trying to get it authenticated they say. Photo is claimed to show Tom Follaird Billie and Doc.
Taken after Blazers Mill.

Creepy photo.
There apoears to me a mark on Billie's face from Buckshot Roberts gun and Docs boot is cut off and he has a splint, from his injury at Blazers Mill.

What you all think?

Thanks for posting the photo. The boots look like the boots in Billy’s famous tintype. They do look a little roughed up like they been through a fight, Tom’s sleeve looks torn or blood stained? Billy looks a little tall? Was Tom and Doc shorter than him? Interesting photo.

Yeah, im not sure as far as the heights. Photo has an eerie feel. If its legit its a heck of a find

Yes, it is an awesome find. Reading about the tarp in the background it does look like an an ammature photographer took it because he paid little mind to perfection not caring that the background tarp wasn’t hanging straight, the drawings on the tarp is strange. It’s believed by the owner that it was taken in a cave or the Kid’s hideout , it does look like it may have been taken in a cave or outdoors, also the three didn’t care of their attire, it looks like it was taken quickly at the spur of the moment and wasn’t planned. If this is Billy, he does look handsome and more 21 instead of his teens I think?

One thing im wondering...Brushy said when Bowdre was shot he was mistaken for the kid because he had on a big hat like mine. Maybe that is the big hat?

The man that’s believed to be Doc that’s on the right looks a bit like Charlie Bowdre to me and his hat and the possible Billy’s hat look similar. Please keep us updated if anymore is discovered about this interesting photo.
