Sean Coleman Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 (edited) Imagine my surprise when I read “The one button suit is back”……it never went away. Another example of MSM lies c/o the Chicago Tribune. Also $39.95 is not a modest price, it’s quite expensive, and the colours available-beige ,black & navy- weren’t the most popular colours in the swinging sixties. I’d rather have 2 carcanos for the same price. Admittedly I don’t think I’d have clinched that receptionist job interview turning up with two guns whereas a natty beige one button number would probably have improved my chances. Thanks Dave! Another great journey down Memory lane. Edited August 29, 2022 by Sean Coleman Stupid fat fingers bashing at wrong keys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's another one for the Memory Lane file (which includes another Kennedy motorcade photo)---from exactly one year earlier than the above Chicago picture. This is a photo which I've used on my webpage here to help drive home the fact that the 11/22/63 Dallas motorcade, despite what many conspiracists believe, was not lax or substandard as far as the normal security is concerned during JFK's term in office. In fact, please note the complete lack of any Secret Service agents at all on the running boards of the follow-up car. Plus, there are NO motorcycles beside JFK's car at all (even though the crowd is pretty close to the car in the photo). The cycles seen in this Oakland picture are riding some distance ahead and behind the President's car. The rear motorcycles, in fact, are riding behind the follow-up car! So from those two standpoints alone—the motorcycle security and the SS agents not being on the running boards—the President's vehicle in Dealey Plaza was much MORE secure and better protected than it was during this portion of this California parade....

Joseph McBride Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 I agree with you, David. And thank you for continuing to post photos and videos. Even though I disagree with you on most issues, you make a real contribution here, unlike some posters who visit just to snipe or make snarky comments and never add anything to the discussion or research.

David Von Pein Posted November 12, 2022 Author Share Posted November 12, 2022 (edited) Thank you, Joseph. The reason why Sean Coleman's comments above come across to me as "heartless and unfeeling" when it comes to that particular photograph that I posted above is because I think that photo is one of the most poignant and heartbreaking among all of the pictures I've ever seen taken on 11/22/63 (as I discussed in 2019 [below] with the individual who supplied me with that photo).

Click to enlarge to 2520 x 802 px.: http://jfk-archives.blogspot.com/2021/10/remarkable-assassination-painting.html Agent Hill here has to run backwards about 7 ft in the next few seconds so that he is level with the front wheel of Queen Mary at Z313 ie the time of the fatal headshot. OR -- he can slow down or stand still & wait for Queen Mary to catch up so that he is in his correct position at Z313 (ie level with the front wheel at Z313). Hill's position in this painting accords with Hill's position at say Z338 -- ie 25 frames after the headshot at Z313. Hill gets his left hand on the grip at say Z340 -- both hands on grip at say Z352 -- one foot on footplate at say Z367 -- both feet at say Z382. The painting has at least 100 errors -- it would make a good subject for a "spot the errors" kids game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's quite obviously not meant to be a perfect representation. But it's still a remarkable painting nonetheless.
