This link to the story regarding the Billy The Kid tintype photo that sold for millions is a great photographic history lesson for your students. For Journalism I students during the first days of school when you are introducing them to all the aspects of journalism, this article makes a great bell ringer with a followup discussion about what will be learned in your photography unit. Hopefully, you include a report or in-depth study of some sort on historic photo processes.
