"Nick, I salute your theories and assumptions! I'm totally with you on this one.
Finally someone who agrees with me! I, from the bottom of my heart, have a strong feeling that the Kid did survive. There's just too much fishiness surrounding…"

Robert Fiorent commented on Robert Fiorent's blog post Billy the Kid in the flesh!
"Thanks, Margaret-Anne!
Yeah, I made them myself. The top image, as well as the rest, were all taken in my home. Let me tell you, the doll was pretty pricey too, but worth every cent! The wanted poster actually came with the figure as an accessory."
Margaret-Anne Moore commented on Robert Fiorent's blog post Billy the Kid in the flesh!
"Great! Where did the top image come from? Did you make these yourself? On the top image, I thought the wanted poster was about to wave with the Breeze!"

By the way, I'm just gonna do a test here... see if I can figure it...…

Some very interesting information on the supposed killing of the Kid
Just came across something extremely interesting, and I wonder if anyone's heard of it. Is it to be taken seriously?
Let me quote what I read on the internet, unsolvedmysteries.com, author: Gypsyhawk
