The backyard photos and Oswald's chin

Apols if this has already been answered here: I couldn't find it. I've read heaps about the purported photo of Oswald where the chin is definitely not Oswald's; it's cited all over the place as proof the backyard photos are faked, but there's something I don't get.What's the deal with the chin? I can clearly see the line across it - the one John McAdams described in the debate on Black Op radio as 'a watermark', but when you compare a real photo of Oswald with the photo of Oswald wearing someone else's chin (which comparison I saw on the Black Op website), the top of the face does look like Oswald's.So if that photo was faked by superimposing LHO's face on someone else's body, why did they only superimpose the face from mid-chin/cropline/'watermark' up? Why not just superimpose the whole face?

Katricia the main thing to remember is at that time photogaphy was very amateur.If i can figure out how to post them I have a couple artifact photis from the JFK archivesthat show how photo manipulation was done at that time. it would have all been done by hand.There were no computers to make magic.
Roscoe White's chin

Jack White expounds in the above-linked youtube. Jack White is second to none in photoanalysis. He posits the chin may be that of Roscoe White.Jim Fetzer and Jim Marrs did the refutation of Dartmouth professor Hany Farid at
http://www.opednews.com/articles/1/THE- ... htmlFetzer is excellent. I found him in the 1998 Assassination Science and his online video lectures are fascinating.Jim Marrs did the early Crossfire and continues to be at the vanguard.Note that the mat of the backyard pose with the figure removed was found in Dallas police files years after the assassination. But I'm sure the Conspiracy Deniers have a plausible explanation.I think when one does photo montage one works with existing images--the forger had an imposter posing--and simply stuck Oswald's head on it in the only way that worked: as a graft on the chin of the imposter----after all, you have to have a transition: do you transition from a pointy chin to a bull neck?Or the head sans chin placed on the chin-top body double?And Oswald said, "It's my head on somebody else."

Yes I think you and Jack are correct. the clip above cuts off just when he is getting interesting.I have copys of the cut out photos and also one of a cop standig in the yard holding a gun and newspaper if I can figure how to post them.

However, he believes as does Jack that White was involved in these photos if not the setting up of Oswald in them (Jack seems to think it was Roscoe Whites body and chin they used. I'm not gonna say much more. Jim avoids that angle and I dont think Groden buys it either but well White certainly had something to do with the photo.Whats important about the photo as you guys have said is that Oswald ranted the photos were faked. The photos indicate that the DPD thought there was some merit to this hence the experiments in the backyard.Another White, Groden, Griggs and now Jim have done some nice stuff on the chin and the issue of the poses and cut outs.But yeah a goody is jims interview on BOR to get sorted.
