Gary Murr Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 Hello Micah: I have not looked at my Norman Similas files for years, literally, but I will try to make time this week to see what I can find that might be of use to you. As far as the photo allegedly "produced by Norman Similas...which appeared in the Liberty magazine" again I don't have this article in front of me. As I recall, again going from memory, was this the image of the sixth floor southeast corner window that appears as the piece of a jigsaw puzzle that was in the upper right-hand corner on the Liberty magazine page? Again, this is going from memory... I will also re-post the portion of the first volume of "Forgotten" regarding the true history of the 6.5mm WCC ammunition that you and Jean were discussing in a different thread..but again this may take me a day or so.

Jean Ceulemans Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 (edited) I am not 100% sure, but I´d think it´s from the William Allen series. A number of those are very much like it, just seconds or minutes between them as it seems and all taken from the same approx. distance. But again, I´m not 100% sure. https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth184796/m1/1/ Edited July 23 by Jean Ceulemans Synt error Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not certain if it was from William Allen or Jim Murray or a fellow photographer and I have been searching my collection to find this specific image but to date, no luck . What I am absolutely certain of is that this image used by Liberty magazine was NOT taken by Norman Similas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Murr Posted 20 hours ago Share Posted 20 hours ago Thank you, John... this is greatly appreciated. I distinctly remember trying to get my hands on some of this material many decades ago. What little I did acquire via NARA and RCMP, Winnipeg, Manitoba, came so heavily redacted that it was unreadable. I am dealing with some famil related serious health issues at the moment but do intend to give these files a long look as soon as I can find the time. Again, thank you...
