Dartmouth Professor Finds That Iconic Oswald Photo Was Not Faked 

Shadows is the important thing

Oswald did not have a deep scar between bottom lip & chin - yet a consistent line is at that point in both photos. Oswald’s chin was somewhat clefted & narrowing towards its lower point…the chin on the subject of both photos is unlike Oswald’s chin. Thus ‘scar’ line & non-matching chin should lead us to at least ask if Oswald’s face (above the cut off line below his lips) was placed on to the chin & neck of someone else. Doing that would actually preserve most of the shadow patterns which this ‘expert’ finds so convincing of the photo’s ‘authenticity’.

@@phantomstrangermedia Wrong. Oswald’s chin shape is only detected if there are shadows. Flat lighting means he has a flat chin. So, you have to see it under different lighting modes. His jaw is wide, but his chin is pointed. So, light can make it look wide or narrow.

@@phantomstrangermedia Wrong. The “deep scar” is just the fold of his chin.

@@timberrr1126 No, look again. There is a ruler straight line on both photos between lower lip & chin. Natural forms don’t have ultra straight lines. The chin in both photos is not the same as that of Oswald.

I am a pro photographer. The photo is not changed or airbrushed. The Oswald nose shadow is shown straight down. This is because his head is TILTED to the right. If his head were vertical, the nose shadow would be angled. Said another way, the nose shadow is angled like his leg shadow, but his head is angled/tilted and this makes the shadow look like it goes straight down. It is a kind of logical deception. Also please notice that Oswald's chin can look wider depending upon where the light is sourced. To see a broad chin on Oswald, look at the cover photo of the RU-vid from CNN called "Lee Harvey Oswald speaks to the press" Simple photograph him with light that creates NO SHADOW ON HIS CHIN. The photo was taken by Marina his wife, so she said on a video interview. Oswald's chin will look pointed if there is a shadow ON THE SIDE of the pointed chin. If there no shadow, it looks wide. End of mystery.

The Dartmouth College professor in his claim that the infamous Oswald "backyard" photos are not fake failed to mention that, for example, in Harrison Livingston and Robert Groden's book "High Treason", that book includes copies of the Oswald "backyard" photos which clearly show a crop line across Oswald's chin just below his lower lip which indicates that Oswald's face was superimposed on the body of whoever was standing in Oswald's backyard when that infamous photo was taken.

@@timberrr1126 . Other photographic experts disagree with your opinion and the Dartmouth College professor's opinion on this topic. In addition, photo experts many years ago discovered a crop line across the chin of the alleged "Oswald" in the infamous "backyard photos" when numerous successive copies of the photos are generated! That is strong evidence that someone superimposed Oswald's face onto the body of someone else! In addition, a Dallas police detective had a photo taken of himself holding that rifle and those communist newspapers in that backyard and has never given a logical explanation for why he took that photo of himself imitating "Oswald's" stance in those backyard photos! Also, a color photo of "Oswald" in the backyard of his Dallas residence supposedly exists which was determined many years ago by JFK researchers, but which has not been seen by the public. Also, Marina Oswald has changed her story so many times to the point where there are numerous inconsistencies in what she has said, which means that her statements about those photos cannot be taken at face value! You quite noticeably fail to mention that fact! So contrary to what you erroneously claim, the mystery surrounding those infamous photos is not by any means over at all!

@@michaelbarlow6610 I can easily prove that his chin can look both pointed or flat and wide. Also, a “crop at the chin” can simply be a minor shadow. Here is how to prove: Oswalds chin is similar to a a snow cone. It is pointed. But if you point this “snow cone” directly at the light, there will be no shadows anywhere on it. Without shadows, this cone looks like flat white paper. If there is any hint of a shadow, then we see it as a pointy thing. Oswald’s chin is like a pointy ball. In the front page photo of him being arrested, his chin looks pointy or wide. Why? Because the flash light is off center -- it then casts a shadow. I gave the name of this video in my post you read. Where the light is “bounced off the ceiling” the light is softer-and HIS CHIN LOOKS WIDE. So, Direct flash-pointy chin Bounced from ceiling flash--wide chin The sun was “broad enough” and “centered enough” to illuminate BOTH SIDES OF HIS CHIN. Then to make it better, the Sun is millions of miles away--so no light fall off due to distance squared formula. Again, the so called “crop line” is a shadow, not a cut line. Crop lines before digital were easily smoothed out by putting FROSTY scotch tape over the cut line then photographed. Also, by positioning the light so that the seam has NO SHADOW, and further by photographing with a row of lights or using a reflective umbrella or white card, this can soften it even more. Then, the lens could have a softening filter on it to really do a job. Because you and all the others have never ever reproduced a black and white photo, and never ever used lights to photograph a professional job, your opinions are well…lack any weight. Then I could add the technique of using a soft lead #1 pencil to draw directly on the “rough side” of the negative to remove shadows, crop marks, pimples. This is how those 1950’s high school pictures look so flawless. They could have used this technique to remove a crop line, a scar, a pimple or a blackhead!! So, you are trying to reason to a conclusion, but you don’t know enough! I can see a series of You tubes where Lee Harvey has BOTH WIDE AND POINTY CHINS. Search You Tube for “Lee Harvey Oswald speaks to” Look at the first picture on the YT. Plenty of wide chins there! Why? Because the light is coming from a broad ceiling source.

@@timberrr1126 . Your overly long-winded response comment proves absolutely nothing regarding the "Oswald" backyard photos because it is just your OPINION nothing more , nothing less that the crop line in the photos is "just a shadow"! Other photographic experts with equally impressive (if not more) knowledge of photography, photographic techniques and photo modification than you disagree with you! You just can't seem to grasp that obvious fact! Just because you claim that those photos are legitimate, unaltered photos of the real Lee Harvey Oswald doesn't ipso facto make that so!

The backyard photo was most likely Roscoe White with Oswald's face over his... If you look him up you will see he matches the chin and well, the mark on his arm that Oswald did not have. It's also a good chance he was the knoll shooter.

Look up the 3 hobos and Roscoe White, they look a whole lot alike.

I always felt his head looked disproportionate to his body in this photo

Exactly Xan!! His head is totally out of proportion!!

You conspiracy nuts lack the capability of understanding obvioua fsct. Y'all see boogeyman everywhere.

It is easy to see that it is not his chin at all when compared with other pictures of him. Also there is a bulge in the line running vertically next to him on his left!

@@dme1016 Yeah and you WC Nutters are just plain silly! Bwwwwaaaaaaaaa!!!!!

@@dme1016 Tell me the 'obvioua fsct' then?

Marina Oswald admitted that she took the photo.

It’s probably just a fill light. The 3D model probably didn’t count for either the light reflecting from the paper or from the wall.

I guess he needs to now model his cheeks and prove the side shadow... you know, light does reflect off the surfaces in and around the yard right?

@@TheCleaner76 whatever you say tidy bowl man.

@@noway905 it's called research 🙄

The Cleaner, although I do not dismiss the possibility that the backyard photos are legitimate, it is worth noting that the recreations were not exactly a perfect match. Oswald’s shadow is at the 10 o’clock position, whereas the recreation shows an 11 o’clock position. The closer the light source is to the horizon, the more the subject will have to tilt his head in order to produce the symmetrical shadow under his nose. For this reason, it is essential that the shadows line up as perfectly as possible. What’s more, shadows are inconsistent between the two subjects; posture is also slightly different, especially the degree of lean (partially responsible for the differences in shadows). The latter doesn’t significantly affect the comparison, but it’s nonetheless worth mentioning. It’s worth noting that Oswald shows more exposure on his arm, hands and face, whereas the recreation shows them in shadow - in part attributable to placement. It’s also worth noting the distinct differences between the fingertips on the hands holding the papers: no fingertips on Oswald, whereas the subject in the recreation has defined fingertips. I point these out not to nitpick, but because the details matter. As far as this analysis goes, I am not convinced that the backyard photos are genuine or forgeries. There is compelling (but not sufficient) evidence that they are legitimate, but there are also enough inconsistencies, oddities and circumstantial evidence to call them into question. It’s also worth noting that convincing forgeries were not outside the limits of 1963 photographic technology. Personally I am far less concerned with the backyard photos than I am with the lack of hard evidence definitively connecting Oswald with CE139. Neither the FBI nor the Warren Commission explained why Oswald ordered a 36" rifle, which Klein's had in stock, but received a 40" rifle, which Klein's did not have in stock. They never explained why the rifle was sold without a sling, yet the rifle found on the 6th floor of the TSBD had a long leather sling. They never explained how Lee Harvey Oswald was able to pick up a package from the post office that was addressed to "A. Hidell." According to postal regulations a letter or parcel addressed to anyone other than the box holder would be stamped "addressee unknown" and "returned to sender." They never explained why or how Oswald was able to pick up a package that contained a firearm from the post office without filling out postal form 2162, required to be filled out by both the shipper and the receiver of a firearm. They never asked Klein's nor the post office for a copy of this form, which was required to be kept by the post office for 4 years. They never explained where or how Oswald acquired an ammunition clip or ammunition for the rifle. The FBI never explained what happened to the Klein's microfilm. The FBI never explained what happened to the original records they confiscated from Crescent, Harborside, Rupp, and Lifschutz. The FBI never explained what happened to the rifle (C2766) sold by Crescent to Klein's on June 18, 1962. This rifle (C2766), shipped to an individual whose name was known only to the FBI, could have been the rifle found by the Dallas Police on the 6th floor of the TSBD. There is a serious shortage of hard evidence connecting Oswald to the alleged murder weapon. The supposed "evidence" consisted of nothing more than paper copies and photographs of altered and fabricated records. The Commission's willingness to accept COPIES AND PHOTOGRAPHS OF DOCUMENTS, instead of insisting on original documents, shows their collusion with the FBI in a deliberate attempt to try and prove that Oswald purchased C2766 from Klein's. The deliberate mishandling and misinterpreting of these fabricated documents was obvious when WC Attorney David Belin questioned Klein's Vice President William Waldman. Belin, again and again, blatantly misled and limited his questioning of Waldman in order to show that C2766 was sold to Oswald/Hidell. Then there's the question of the money order. According to the Warren Commission Lee Harvey Oswald left his job at Jaggers-Chiles-Stovall during the morning of March 12, walked 11 blocks to the downtown post office, purchased a postal money order, and then mailed his order for the rifle to Klein's Sporting Goods in Chicago before returning to work. But the letter was postmarked 10:30 am, and company time records show that Oswald never left his job. He worked continuously from 8:00 am through 12:15 pm on 9 different printing jobs. The Warren Commission never pointed out that the envelope, time-stamped 10:30 am, was not mailed from the downtown post office where the money order was purchased. It was stamped and mailed in "zone 12," which was several miles west of the downtown post office and across the Trinity River. In order for this letter to have reached Chicago the following day, it would have to have been picked up by a mail carrier sometime after 10:30 am, delivered to the Industrial Station post office in zone 7, and then sorted and bagged into an airmail pouch. And the airmail pouch would have to have been delivered by another mail carrier to Love Field and then placed aboard an aircraft prior to it's 12 o'clock noon departure. If we are to believe the Warren Commission, then we believe that Oswald skipped work for an undetermined period of time on the morning of March 12, walked 11 blocks to the post office, purchased a postal money order, traveled several miles across the Trinity River in order to mail the letter, and then returned to his job unnoticed. And then, if we believe the Warren Commission, this letter was picked up by a mail carrier sometime after 10:30 am in zone 12, delivered to the post office in zone 7, sorted and placed into an airmail pouch, transported to the Love Field Airport, and loaded aboard the last flight to Chicago before the plane departed at noon. This money order was allegedly received by Klein's Sporting Goods in Chicago the following morning, was included with over a thousand other mail orders from around the country, and then deposited into Klein's bank account. If this sounds a little farfetched, believe me, it gets better. All US Postal Money orders have unique serial numbers. In the fall of 1962, Oswald purchased numerous money orders from the same downtown post office and mailed them to Washington, DC, in order to repay a loan from the government for his travel expenses incurred when he returned to the USA from Russia. These money orders were purchased in numerical sequence beginning in November, 1962. These serial numbers show that some 1200 money orders per week were purchased at the downtown post office in Dallas. At this rate we see that Oswald's alleged purchase of a money order on March 12, 1963, should have been numbered 2,202,011,935. But the serial number of the money order published in the Warren Volumes was more than 118,000 numbers higher. At the rate of 1200 money order per week, this money order should have been purchased in late 1964 or early 1965. In other words, this money order could easily have been pulled from a stack of fresh, unsold money orders by a postal official in Dallas, sometime after the assassination, and then given to the FBI. A close look at the details surrounding the "finding" of the money order the day after the assassination strongly suggests that this is what happened.

@@emmasanders6226 If you have ever tried to make fake shadows using 1960s photo tech, you would not be endorsing any methods. Shadows are not merely dark spots. They have inner reflections that make them look 3D. And every shadow has different reflections than all other shadows. The Oswald photo was taken by Marina. Oswald was documenting himself as an FBI operative. The photo has nothing to do with JFK. Even the rifle has not been positively linked to JFK. JFK was buried with the bullet that traveled from his back to his leg or near his hip. Bullets to his head were gutted clean. Connolly was buried with his leg bullet. Source; Orlando Sentinel, July 18, 1993 Only the Magic Bullet could be linked to the rifle. And this was a bullet fired into a bale of cotton or water. So the FBI had to create the Magic Bullet sometime before the JFK shooting. Then it was placed on the stretcher. The Magic bullet was planted evidence. It is equal to the passport found on the ground at the Charlie Hebdo shooting in Paris; or the passport found of the pilot of the 9/11 plane. Or the passport of another shoot out. I read that Israeli secret police like to plant passports.

That's probably because the guy thought the sun was lower which, if you look at the image it's higher

@charles robbins: FBI firearms expert Robert A. Frazier testified to the Warren Commission that the sling was not in any way similar to a normal sling for a rifle, appearing to be one that Oswald had fashioned from some carrying case, camera bag...or something of that nature. Another FBI weapons expert, Lyndal Shaneyfelt, said that the rifle sling had “the appearance of being a piece of rope that is tied at both ends.” As far as can be seen in the backyard photos, the rifle Oswald is holding is indeed "physically consistent" with the one found on the 6th floor of the TSBD. Meaning, it cannot be said that this is not the same rifle Oswald used in the assassination, nor that its appearance, is inconsistent with it. To say it's "physically consistent" may be to you a meaningless observation in and of itself, but not when combined with all the additional firearm/ballistic evidence linking Oswald to the crime. But to avoid petty argument, you can throw out the backyard photos entirely, like they never existed, and you'd still have more than enough evidence left over to convict Oswald. Case closed.

@@stddisclaimer8020 You just go on repeating your mantra of avoidance. "physically consistent" is not saying that it IS the same rifle. It is just a sideways means of trying to insert unproven evidence into the record. The sling is not the issue here, as you well know. The sling mounts are the issue. They are in different places on the two rifles. Try to fix that issue and leave every other attempt at misdirection out of the subject. Explain how the rifle in the archives has sling mounts on it's side and the rifle in the backyard photos shows, quite clearly, bottom mounted sling mounts. One point of contention, location of the sling mounts on the two obviously differently configured rifles. What ballistic evidence? The evidence of one bullet fragmenting into minute pieces after hitting a very weak skull bone and the other bullet causing 7 wounds of the skin of the two men, smashing one rib of Gov. Connally and then causing a fracture of Gov. Connally's radius, one of the hardest and most dense bones in the human body,? A bullet that was then found to be in nearly perfect condition; with less lead missing from the bullet than the lead which was recovered from the Gov.'s wrist and chest? A bullet which was found on a stretcher one floor above the Governor and the President? A bullet which if tested for DNA would provide none because the bullet did not come from either of the two men hit by bullets that day in Dealey Plaza. Look at the images of ce399 and you see a very clean bullet with no gore upon it. Look at the x-rays of JFK's skull and you see hundreds of tiny fragments within the skull. Is this not problematic for the commission? How does one bullet remain in such perfect condition while the other bullet, supposedly coming from the same box of ammunition, fragment into hundreds of tiny pieces of lead? No one can prove Lee Oswald was in that sniper's nest that day. The one man who is said to have identified Oswald was not wearing his glasses that day and that made it impossible for him to see anybody's facial features at the time of the shooting. The evidence in this case was cherry picked. The commission chose to ignore any testimony or statements which would have caused any doubt of the conclusion made by the commission. Hoover had stated within 24 hours of the assassination that Oswald alone was responsible for the killing of JFK. How is that even accepted as a possibility? Today it would have taken months to interrogate all of the people that Lee Oswald knew or had been in contact with in the months or year before the assassination. So how is it that Hoover was so sure of his claim? It is simple, that was what was decided would be the result 10 months later when the report was provided to the American public. This is just the tip of the iceberg of evidence which disproves the conclusion of the commission. Thank you for your informative response.

@@charlesrobbins2208 "You just go on" repeating/recycling the same old unreasonable doubt, idle speculations and factoid-filled hogwash found in pro-conspiracy books.

Was the photo of George Washington Bush Sr. Faked because I think that one was real but what was he doing in Dealy Plaza on the same day of JFKs assassination and why was he photographed leaving the book depository minutes before the first shot was fired and for all the protection that our president was supposed to have, why didn’t he see Oswald in the nest, and better yet why wasn’t he questioned extensively by the Warren commission and the shit that they are putting up on RU-vid about him being friends with JFK is bullshit he was fired by JFK and so was Allen Dulles who was from old northeastern Money and who was a lawyer but more importantly he was also the director of the CIA and he had planned two successful Coups before his third one failed but his fourth one wasn’t a failure that was the one where he took our government away from us and I hope that he burns in Hell with all the other traitors to our country

To me, he it the most interesting part of this story and I have little reason to doubt his son Ricky...

Here's the fallacy of your thinking on the photos. Looking into the story behind the photograph in the back yard it becomes clear that the photo was not faked. The most important factor is that Oswald's wife testified that she took the photograph. In addition, Oswald wrote "Hunter of Fascists" on the back of the photo and gave it to George de Mohrenschildt.

John garner garner There is nothing wrong with my findings. Marina (the least most important factor in this) was being threatened with deportation so basically agreed to say anything the FBI wanted. One of the photos was made public in February 1964, simultaneously appearing on the cover of Life magazine and on the front page of the Detroit Free Press. It was noticed that the photo appeared to have been tampered with since details differed from publication to publication. In particular, details of the rifle differed. For instance, in the version that appeared on the cover of Life Magazine, Oswald's rifle had a sniper scope. But in the version that ran in the Detroit Free Press, the sniper scope was gone. With regards to body size. Another way of working out the height of someone is from their head measurement. The height of most people is made up of eight head heights. In all three photos Oswald's height varies and in one photo he is only seven heads high. They made his head size too large for his body. The photos are FAKE.

I think it is funny that they found another copy of this picture in the hands of George de Mohrenschildt or how you spell it.......... and it is a better quality one........... And what i find funny also is that them heads on the different pictures are all the same............... Almost exactly the same. Something just doesnt add up. Especially considering the FACT that this picture was published in LIFE and they put this text next to it: Lee with the weapons he used to kill JFK and Tippit. They published it while the Warren Commission hadnt yet published their report............. And there is a shitload of things that show it to be fishy. As for the most important factor, his wife testifying................ Get real. Somehow her testimony is taken for real, and most important, while the testimony of trained doctors and such is swept under the rug.

Anthony C, Microdots. Woohooo! Except: What if i were to make a fake composition, and then take a picture? The commission determined........Sure, and the next one determined that it WAS a conspiracy. Even LBJ himself wasnt sure. The lens and glass you talk about, nice. But it was scratches done by the film-guide in the camera which made them able to determine it was that camera. However. If you make a fake composition and add a layer with the scatchmarks and such details, and Then take the picture...... I always found it Very strange that they found another such pictures with mr G DeMohrenschildt. Its as if Willem Oltmans did speak the truth. Not just that, but it was of a better quality than the others they had found. But what is even more funny is: it was Published on the Front Page in the LIFE magazine with the caption: Lee with the weapons he used to kill the President and Tippit. Except the Warren Report hadnt been published when that magazine was published. How did they know for sure that this was the man? And do you think those working in a bussiness like a Life Magazine and such, that they dont know how to use pictures, make pictures, alter pictures, etc? And what was also a very funny thing is that they actually Found material which could be used to fake the picture, like masks and such...... But the explanation was something like: Nah, i just wanted to check if it was possible. But it all doesnt matter, picture or no picture. A picture like that doesnt prove somebody has actually done what he or she is accused of doing. And CE399 shows quite perfectly that Lee wasnt alone. You may twist it, you may distort it however you like. Every person who actually uses a small piece of his or her brain can understand that if a bullet hits a skull and explodes, it is highly unlikely that a similar bullet is able to shatter 2 bones of which one a wristbone, and come out looking like the CE399 bullet looks like. Plus: If Lee was smart enough to use an alias to buy a weapon...... Smart enough to go to Russia, learn the language, come back and so on........ (smart as in knowing how to etc.) Smart enough to think up a plan to kill the president, and so on....... All of this shows he had some brains which he used.......... And yet when he actually has done what he has planned to do, he leaves behind 3 bulletshells at the window he shot from..... which then ofcourse gives Police the hint: There might be more....... Yet he again shows he is using some parts of his brain because he does hide the rifle. Then he is seen by Roger Craig stepping into some kind of stationwagon. And, if Roger Craig had not seen that, Lee would not have been asked about it, and Lee would not have confirmed it by saying: Leave Mrs Paine out of this. It was her car Roger Craig had seen. (most likely) But then he again shows to have the ability to use his brains. But lateron he kills Tippit according to the official story, and then he empties his REVOLVER at the spot..... Leaving behind the shells right there......... And then lateron he again uses his brains because he then has seen that he is spotted and decides to hide in a theatre where he is arrested ofcourse. But, before that happens, somebody knew this is the man who both murdered JFK and Tippit, because that somebody wrote it down on the arrest report itself. At 1:40 PM that same afternoon. While the police was just called, or still had to be called, to get to the theatre to arrest the suspect, somebody already wrote on the arrest report: This is the man who killed JFK, Tippit and wounded Connally (or something to that affect). And you believe it, all of it. Just like you probably also believe they have found DNA from hijackers. Yet 1100+ victims of which no trace of DNA can be found what so ever. And black boxes? They just went up in the smoke. But they did find DNA from supposed hijackers who were in the fucking plane when it hit the building and exploded. No problem finding DNA in such a case. Black boxes, completely different story ofcourse. Yeah........... And you actually think people will eventually even believe a lie like that. Get real.

@Andrew Webb-trezzi: It was not known that JFK would even be coming to Dallas at the time Oswald purchased his rifle in March of '63. And the presidential motorcade route was not even published until November 19 (3 days beforehand). Hence, no fore-knowledge and no plot.

There is no hard evidence linking Oswald to the rifle. Neither the FBI nor the Warren Commission explained why Oswald ordered a 36" rifle, which Klein's had in stock, but received a 40" rifle, which Klein's did not have in stock. They never explained why the rifle was sold without a sling, yet the rifle found on the 6th floor of the TSBD had a long leather sling. They never explained how Lee Harvey Oswald was able to pick up a package from the post office that was addressed to "A. Hidell." According to postal regulations a letter or parcel addressed to anyone other than the box holder would be stamped "addressee unknown" and "returned to sender." They never explained why or how Oswald was able to pick up a package that contained a firearm from the post office without filling out postal form 2162, required to be filled out by both the shipper and the receiver of a firearm. They never asked Klein's nor the post office for a copy of this form, which was required to be kept by the post office for 4 years. They never explained where or how Oswald acquired an ammunition clip or ammunition for the rifle. The FBI never explained what happened to the Klein's microfilm. The FBI never explained what happened to the original records they confiscated from Crescent, Harborside, Rupp, and Lifschutz. The FBI never explained what happened to the rifle (C2766) sold by Crescent to Klein's on June 18, 1962. This rifle (C2766), shipped to an individual whose name was known only to the FBI, could have been the rifle found by the Dallas Police on the 6th floor of the TSBD. There is a serious shortage of hard evidence connecting Oswald to the alleged murder weapon. The supposed "evidence" consisted of nothing more than paper copies and photographs of altered and fabricated records. The Commission's willingness to accept COPIES AND PHOTOGRAPHS OF DOCUMENTS, instead of insisting on original documents, shows their collusion with the FBI in a deliberate attempt to try and prove that Oswald purchased C2766 from Klein's. The deliberate mishandling and misinterpreting of these fabricated documents was obvious when WC Attorney David Belin questioned Klein's Vice President William Waldman. Belin, again and again, blatantly misled and limited his questioning of Waldman in order to show that C2766 was sold to Oswald/Hidell. Then there's the question of the money order. According to the Warren Commission Lee Harvey Oswald left his job at Jaggers-Chiles-Stovall during the morning of March 12, walked 11 blocks to the downtown post office, purchased a postal money order, and then mailed his order for the rifle to Klein's Sporting Goods in Chicago before returning to work. But the letter was postmarked 10:30 am, and company time records show that Oswald never left his job. He worked continuously from 8:00 am through 12:15 pm on 9 different printing jobs. The Warren Commission never pointed out that the envelope, time-stamped 10:30 am, was not mailed from the downtown post office where the money order was purchased. It was stamped and mailed in "zone 12," which was several miles west of the downtown post office and across the Trinity River. In order for this letter to have reached Chicago the following day, it would have to have been picked up by a mail carrier sometime after 10:30 am, delivered to the Industrial Station post office in zone 7, and then sorted and bagged into an airmail pouch. And the airmail pouch would have to have been delivered by another mail carrier to Love Field and then placed aboard an aircraft prior to it's 12 o'clock noon departure. If we are to believe the Warren Commission, then we believe that Oswald skipped work for an undetermined period of time on the morning of March 12, walked 11 blocks to the post office, purchased a postal money order, traveled several miles across the Trinity River in order to mail the letter, and then returned to his job unnoticed. And then, if we believe the Warren Commission, this letter was picked up by a mail carrier sometime after 10:30 am in zone 12, delivered to the post office in zone 7, sorted and placed into an airmail pouch, transported to the Love Field Airport, and loaded aboard the last flight to Chicago before the plane departed at noon. This money order was allegedly received by Klein's Sporting Goods in Chicago the following morning, was included with over a thousand other mail orders from around the country, and then deposited into Klein's bank account. If this sounds a little farfetched, believe me, it gets better. All US Postal Money orders have unique serial numbers. In the fall of 1962, Oswald purchased numerous money orders from the same downtown post office and mailed them to Washington, DC, in order to repay a loan from the government for his travel expenses incurred when he returned to the USA from Russia. These money orders were purchased in numerical sequence beginning in November, 1962. These serial numbers show that some 1200 money orders per week were purchased at the downtown post office in Dallas. At this rate we see that Oswald's alleged purchase of a money order on March 12, 1963, should have been numbered 2,202,011,935. But the serial number of the money order published in the Warren Volumes was more than 118,000 numbers higher. At the rate of 1200 money order per week, this money order should have been purchased in late 1964 or early 1965. In other words, this money order could easily have been pulled from a stack of fresh, unsold money orders by a postal official in Dallas, sometime after the assassination, and then given to the FBI. A close look at the details surrounding the "finding" of the money order the day after the assassination strongly suggests that this is what happened.

Not for nothing i think Burgioni was telling the truth when he said that the zuprder film he saw, and used to make breifing boards wasnt the same zapruder film we see today

Even if you believe that photographic manipulation is much more advanced in the public sector than in the private sector (an absolutely ridiculous assumption but okay) there's NO WAY photo manipulation in the public sector in 1963 was advanced enough to pull this off. This professor has forgotten more about photography than you or I will ever know and he states the level of technical expertise needed to pull this off would be hard even today.

D800Lover Yep, he knew exactly what they were doing to him. All part of the patsification process - so the real assassins and conspirators didn't hang for assassinating the president and a coup d'etat like Lincoln's assassins did! They had everything resting on making LHO the patsy - their (worthless, warmonger) lives! They would stop at nothing to kill JFK and frame Oswald - and they had limitless power at their disposal to do so! Lee Oswald was innocent. He was "prayerman" on the landing of the TSBD steps - just as he told Fritz he was during the interrogation: "out front with Bill Shelly". And also as he told Inspector Holmes during one interrogation session, that he heard the "commotion" out front - the roar of the crowd for the approaching motorcade? (witnesses have reported the roar could be heard as the motorcade came down Main and neared Houston) - and ran up front "to the vestibule" (described by Holmes in his notes, as the space between the 2 sets of glass doors that led to the TSBD steps). PM/LHO was actually was in the west corner of the landing and can be seen holding a unique stance the entire time - which is why the name "Prayer Man" was coined for him. He is seen in both Wiegman and Darnell films holding people have long guessed might be an apple or a pop bottle reflecting the light - but which i've now proven to be a TLR camera (Twin Lens Reflex style camera - like Vivian Maier used - a very common type of camera in '63) - specifically his Imperial Reflex 620, which is a cheap TLR allegedly used to take the back yard photos. It mysteriously "disappeared" from the Paine house after the assassination, then miraculously was "found" at the Paine house by Robt. Oswald (as so much evidence was similarly miraculously "found" there days, weeks and months after the assassination!) and returned months later by R.O. to the FBI (i think it was in Feb '64, if i remember correctly). A tortuous route! And up till now no reasonable explanation for its mysterious and convoluted disappearance and reappearance- now we know why! Prayer Man (Oswald) is not holding an apple or a pop bottle - he's holding a TLR camera his IR 620. TLR's uniquely reflect the light from its top "reflex lens" which has a mirror behind it at a 45 degree angle. The angle of the mirror sends the light and the "view" up to the viewfinder on top of the camera. But, I found, it also uniquely - unlike any other style of camera - reflects light back out the reflex lens toward the viewer! Thus creating the persistant "reflection" we see between PM's hands. And his stances used are classic TLR stances - ala Vivian Maier! In fact, it was my research on her life and work that set off he lightbulb that this is what PM was doing. But then I found the rationale for the persistant "light" we see between his hands.: Proof That Prayer Man is Oswald & Is Holding His Imperial Reflex 620 Camera www.reopenkennedycase.org/apps/forums/topics/show/13218499 Also, please be sure to read, share and follow the Prayer Man thread at the Education Forum so you understand the entire story PM and how proof was brilliantly and methodically developed to sustantiate that he is LHO . For those who may poo-poo this without reading the thread - you'd be wrong - his identity is NOT - repeat NOT - based solely upon his looks but upon lots of other evidence - statements, affidavits and testimonies, changes in statements, testimony etc.., the earliest news accounts stating LHO was seen in the first floor lobby and/or storage closet immediately as Truly and Baker charged into the lobby; and an "elimination list" eliminating all employees from being PM - except for one. Oswald. This is the most important and exciting new avenue in the history of JFK assassination research in my lifetime, others agree with that - and i've been studying the assassination for 40 years. Jim DiEugenio is a big fan of PM research - and he is one of the very best researchers out there. This thread at the EDF is now up to 147 pages long! The brilliant and relentless work of Sean Murphy was what broke this open. My research was ignited by studying his paradigm-shifting new line of research on the EDF. If you consider yourself to be a serious JFK researcher you can't spend your time any more productively than to educate yourself about PM! And you will never be more fascinated.

His wife Marina told of how Lee owned a riflfe, practiced with it, and how SHE took the pictures of him holding the rifle along with the left wing newspapers. MARINA TOOK THESE PICTURES. She also says that that was the rifle that Lee TOLD her he used to shoot at Edwin Walker. To the police, he denied owning the rifle, and denied bringing it into work. However, a friend of his who defends Lee said that Lee brought a long package that he said were window curtains to work. Lee denied bringing ANY package to work, and only a lunch in a small bag. No window curtains were found at the depository, and the ownership of the rifle was traced definitively back to Lee. He used a fake name on the mail order form (Alek Hidell) to buy it. It was sent to a Post Office box registered under Oswald's real name. Hidell was the name he called himseld in the USSR.

RonaldReaganRocks1 Saved me typing,thank you ! Can’t believe some of these idiots that scream conspiracy ! Oswald acted alone !!

This articulate surmisal draws the same conclusion as me.

@King Anthony Correct! And what's more is his son, little Georgie, entered into the same Mephistophelian contract and adroitly dispatched Jonjon, in order to secure the EXACT same deal for himself, some 33 years later.

He's got almost everything wrong and is putting his professional reputation at risk just for money.

Yes, you have it all figured out. Good job.

@@thearkworldlife8338 And what is your degree in?

You Tinfoiler think you're smarter than Duh Sheeple. When, in fact, you gullible gumps are a bunch of 5watt bulbs.

The backyard photo was most likely Roscoe White with Oswald's face over his... If you look him up you will see he matches the chin and well, the mark on his arm that Oswald did not have. It's also a good chance he was the knoll shooter.

Maybe because he wasn't a criminal at the time, or maybe it's oliver stone bone's body and head and it was done for the movie see I can make shit up too.

What gets me about Oswald is he said. “I’m a Patsy.” Like you said he would gloat over the fact that he killed JFK!

@Ebeegeebee Fofeebee: Your comment is 30 degrees off from reality.

kraljo1 no idea what this means... but it’s strange... it gave me wood.

@@jerseymusicman3332 Maybe he means "Cannot see the forest for the trees" or maybe not.

I am a pro photographer. The photo is not changed or airbrushed. The Oswald nose shadow is shown straight down. This is because his head is TILTED to the right. If his head were vertical, the nose shadow would be angled. Said another way, the nose shadow is angled like his leg shadow, but his head is angled/tilted and this makes the shadow look like it goes straight down. It is a kind of logical deception. Also please notice that Oswald's chin can look wider depending upon where the light is sourced. To see a broad chin on Oswald, look at the cover photo of the RU-vid from CNN called "Lee Harvey Oswald speaks to the press" Simple photograph him with light that creates NO SHADOW ON HIS CHIN. The photo was taken by Marina his wife, so she said on a video interview. Oswald's chin will look pointed if there is a shadow ON THE SIDE of the pointed chin. If there no shadow, it looks wide. End of mystery.

Clown!

What did they do about the cut on Oswald’s face and his swollen eyelid?

Yep. That should settle it. The photo is not phony if she was the one taking the photo.

@@romankatz982 the negatives were hidden in her shoe by the way

And he endorsed and signed at least two of them!

@@romankatz982 -Except there are several photos. Not just one. Also who cares what she said? She was under threat of deportation.The Warren Commission filled with the most prestigious people in the country and lied about the death of a President> So yer faith in authority is ever so touching.

True. LHO did not murder my hero JFK. But he did know who was in on it and that was why he was a self proclaimed "patsy"

"How every Trauma Room doctor and nurses at Parkland Hospital saw with their own eyes, a tiny wound of entrance in the President’s throat" You are making a glaring omission. Quite obviously the main reason the Parkland doctors thought the throat wound was an entry was because they didn't know about the other bullet hole in his back, and even after they learned about it later from the news, that was after they had already lost the opportunity of examining both bullet holes closely. You have no possible way of knowing whether or not they would have continued to call the throat wound an entrance had they spent an equal amount of time closely examining both bullet holes. "and a fist sized exit wound in the occipital (back of head) area." Another glaring omission. You didn't bother to mention that at Parkland they never peeled back his hair and scalp to view anywhere even remotely close to 100 percent of the damage to his skull, nor did they take any x-rays at Parkland, so they would have had no possible way of knowing for certain that that was an exit. No one saw 100 percent of the damage to his skull for the first time ever until Bethesda, where they both peeled back his hair and scalp to reveal the total damage to the skull and also took x-rays. I continue to find it interesting that so many people think the Parkland observations "outweigh" the Bethesda observations when at Parkland they didn't do even remotely as much examination of the damage to his skull as they did at Bethesda. It's outlandish, really, that people claim that the doctors who saw only a small portion of the damage to his skull would know better than the ones who saw 100 percent of the damage to his skull.

@@Caeruleo …there is one inescapable oddity though. The first bullet hitting JFK acted exactly like a full metal jacket. It pierced his body cleanly, and left a relatively clean exit wound. Actually the bullet continued to act like an FMJ..even as it entered and then exited Connolly. The bullet that hit JFK’s cranium on the other hand acted pretty much exactly like a hollow-point bullet might. Instead of going cleanly through as a fully metal jacket would, the second bullet caused more deformity / partial destruction of the cranium…which a bullet fired by a Manlicher Carcano would not, as numerous subsequent tests have shown. At around 1900 ft / sec the bullet should have gone right through even though the Carcano was not considered an ultra-high velocity…the velocity was certainly high enough. The question is this: if a hollow-point was fired at JFK as the first shot, it would have still entered JFK’s back leaving a small entrance wound, but it most certainly would have absolutely blown out his throat area as the hollow front of the bullet would have carried a mass of tissue toward that exit. Instead it left a neat little nick in his throat and his tie, before entering Connolly. By contrast, JFK’s cranium was not only crushed in the exit area, but the inside of his skull was sprayed with a shower of lead particles, that would have come from the nose of the hollow point as it exploded in his skull. By contrast, the “pristine bullet found on the stretcher at Parkland had very little lead missing..even after going through two bodies. Bottom line is that the Carcano rifle could not fire two types of ammunition…so how did it seem to do so?..or is it more likely that a second shooter was possibly involved?

People always use the Warren Commission and other documents to rule out a conspiracy. As we all know those documents could be fake or altered. The people involved had power over the investigation and documents. You are right about the photo but it is irrelevant. Who was Oswald really?

@@Caeruleo You proably believe the original documents to be 100% real. How do you know they wasn't falsified or revised ? Oswald died so we will never know for sure. But it is impossible to rule out any conspiracy.

GEE RAM For a lot of conspiracy nuts, they just pretend Marina is lying- nothing satisfies them.

@@Sebadiah23 - Why should she be believed about anything? She was a possible Soviet intelligence operative. Apparently had affairs with one of her interpreters as well as Oswald’s brother.

In her testimonies Marina Oswald waffled on the subjects related to cameras and backyard photos, originally indicating that she did not take any of the photos.

@@alekhidell7068 yeah I mean there's alot of questions we will never have answered and there will always be a solid argument for both sides. I'm kind of in between to be honest but I do lean towards there being some kind of conspiracy. I do think those backyard photos are real cause they've been examined for decades. I would absolutely love to see one final in depth interview of Marina Oswald since she is still alive but is a recluse and understandably so. This case will always fascinate me but it's sad that everyone from that time period will be dead soon and we will never get 100% certainty of what really happened. Ruby killing Oswald really screwed everything up.
