Man buys photo for $2 at garage sale – looks closer and discovers it’s worth millions

They say that one man’s trash is another man’s treasure, and this saying has proven to be true many times.

There are plenty of stories of people who have stumbled upon items that seemed worthless at first sight but turned out to be more valuable than anyone ever anticipated.

When a man named Randy Guijarro purchased an old box with photos for $2, he never assumed that one of the photos would turn out to be an extremely rare find.

The photos were very old, lacking color and taken years ago, simply relatively ordinary memories.

The only reason Randy decided to buy that box was because he found the photos inside rather cool and unique.

Once home, he began to flick through the photos and that’s when he noticed what appeared to be a familiar face, that of Billy the Kid, known as one of the Wild West’s most notorious outlaws. 

Billy the Kid, whose real name was William H. Bonney, was killed in 1881 at the age of 23, after living a life as a fugitive.

Besides being a rather incredible piece of history, Randy’s find was also valuable.

According to reports, this particular photo from the box he only spent $2 on was sold for astonishing $5 million.
