(Fox News) – The above photo provided by Frank Abrams of North Caroline shows what historians believe is a photo of outlaw Billy the Kid, second from left, and Pat Garrett, far right, taken in 1880. Abrams, who bought the photo at a flea market in 20011 for $10, says forensics experts and facial recognition have verified the picture after several months of examination. It could be worth millions of dollars.
