Thanks Roy.

I assume you are refering to the man leaning on the car with a cigar in his hand. ?


Robin.

Yes, Robin, everything seems about right about this being Lovelady, except the shirt. According to TKOAP, p. 187, Lovelady was wearing a window pane shirt. This looks more like the pattern of Oswald's shirt. But Lovelady had a bald spot in the area shown in the photo, and the facial profile looks like his. Hmm. What do you think?

Roy

Roy.

To be honest i'm not sure, however the bald spot does look right, and he has a similar profile to Lovelady. ?

Did Lovelady smoke cigars? And another thing, and I don't want to come off as a contrarian, but isn't that a suit jacket?

Robert, it looks like a shirt to me, but it could be a suit jacket. I have no idea whether Lovelady smoked cigars. It's probably someone else. Incidentally, do you or anyone else have a photograph of William Shelley? He was supposed to be next to Lovelady in the Altgens 5 photograph, but his figure is obscured. It seems that his arms are up, but you can't see the face. I've seen Truly in a photo, but never a good one of Shelley.

Roy

This may give us a better look at the man with the bald spot:

Robin,

Check out the guy in the middle of this image with the hat. Is that the supposed Jim Braden character?

James

I'll answer my own question.

Having just checked other images, I would have to say that it is. Given this Skaggs image, I believe it is safe to say that this individual is not Jim Braden aka Eugene Hale Brading.

FWIW.

James

Hi James.

Yeh it looks to be the same Jim Braden look alike, but like you, i don't think it is him.!

______________________________________

Regarding post #16, yes that's definitely the same guy who was tentatively identified as Eugene Hale Brading in a well-known photo (below). The same "Al Davis"-type face, the same hat, the same X's on the same hatband, the same white shirt with tight collar, the same tightly-knotted dark tie.

P.S. If you're wondering who Al Davis is, he's the owner of the Oakland Raiders football team....

I noticed that (Willis 8 and Skaggs 12) appear to be very similar time frames.
