And now what is believed to the only surviving authenticated portrait of the gunfighter, who according to legend killed 21 men has sold for more than $2.3 million.
The tintype which went to private collector William Koch shows the outlaw dressed in a rumpled hat and layers of clothes, including a bulky sweater. One hand rests on a Winchester carbine on his right side and a Colt revolver holstered on his left side.
Organizers at Brian Lebel's 22nd Annual Old West Show & Auction said the image was the most expensive piece ever sold at the event.
