... Billy the Kid ... several members of his gang, The Regulators, playing a leisurely game of croquet ...LOL! It sounds like the cover of a novel with an unexpected plot twist.

Just wow.
History and historicy create meaning for us.
Touching or seeing things that link us to our past make bridges upon which we can tread.

How long will it take before someone finds the Billy The Kid photo offensive or racist and call for it’s destruction? I’m serious.

In the old days, even outlaws and ditch-diggers looked tidier than the average person now.

Urbane to say the least.
They should have invented a sort of Colt .45 version — shoot that sucker through the rails!

On the left. He always wore a plain black hat. He was recently shot in the thigh and the way he is standing indicates that it might still have been giving him pain. The house in background is rather ramshackle.
Billy was from New York City. This is a strange setting for a photo, never knew they played croquet out in the Wild West. It would be like seeing a photo of John Gotti playing Space Invaders in some arcade.

The original owner is kicking himself. That would be something I would do.

The far away shot in my post-12 would make a fantastic painting. That is, if done in the old school traditional (realistic) landscape style.
