Hey! I know everyone says this... But after a ton of looking, I do beleive I have a good photo that appears to be of Billy and Jose Chavez y Chavez... I have had it looked at by a lady who worked on the lst big Kid project in Nm and she was the clothing historian... everything was more than accurate she thought and wanted me to go to someone who could do some forensics on it etc... SO.. with that said... where should I go? I have lost the paper the lady gave me with whom to speak to and she has since moved and is no long ther curator at the museum here.
Try contacting a museum, like say the Hubbard Museum in Ruidoso...(505) 378-4142, they can at least give you information as to where to go or who to contact. Authenticating a photo can be really expensive, but good luck and keep us updated on your progress!
Hey Loretta! Thanks for the info. I am actually in Lubbock, so Ruidoso is not too far from me. Maybe I will swing out there this weekend and see what I can dig up! I will definately keep you informed!
Maybe the folks at the museum in Lincoln could help you. If I remember right, they've done some extensive work in authenticating or not authenicating other purported Billy photos. It would be great if you actually one!
