Every now and then I'll see as comment made be someone regarding Billy Lovelady leaning over in Altgens 6. Or they'll do something like color his shirt red, and in doing so make his left arm look really long.
I've known for a long time that that is not the case, that it's just an optical illusion. Problem is, I didn't have a high quality copy of the photo and so I'd have a hard time making my case. And it wasn't worth the effort because it's not really an important thing. But it might be of
"For at least a decade I've been wondering what's up with Tie man's white shirt on top of Lovelady's? (thanks Chris D.) face and shoulder."
I took this statement (in bold) to mean that you agree, any background objects should not be in front of Lovelady's face/shoulder as we see in Altgens based on the other comparisons I have provided, which include angles more acute than what is seen in Altgens.
The shadow removed would expose more of his right shoulder.
