grey haired man with camera

Post by tom jeffers »

I have recently looked at the zapruder film and it appears to be a grey haired man with a movie camera on the south kawn right when the shot from the knoll hits JFK. Has there been any film released from this man? It appears hr is in a great spot to capture events occuring on the grasst knoll at the time of the shootings.

This is my first post. I wanted to say hi to Bruce from a Terre Haute resident. I assume you know where it is if you been having lunch with James. Were just right down the road a ways. Life magazine called us sin city back in the days. Did Jimmy ever have any dealings in our town that he can taslk about?

Thanks to Wim on all the hard work. I have litterally spent 2 weeks glued to this sight. (i am in the hospital but I have my laptop and a wireless connection to keep me sane)

I believe the man you are reffering to is James Altgens. He is holding a camera and did capture a few photographs which indeed were released. None of which included the headshot timeframe.

Dear Mr. Wim Dankbaar, Tom Jeffers, and Fellow JFK Forum Members:06.20.2006 - Tom Jeffers made his first Post from his laptop computer in the hospital with this Headline: Grey Haired Man With Camera.Tom, and those of you interested in Zapruder, Nix, Moorman, and Altgens may wish to make it your own project to blend and analyze your composite results.That may be a different, new, and advanced approach to all of you interested both Pro and Con in this Subject Matter.Ken Murray, and other JFK Forum Member Computer and editing experts of movies, pictures, and videos: Has anybody tried creating a composite with 2010 technology ? Could this help solve many of these questions raised by both sides of this debate ?Comments ?Respectfully,Bruce Patrick Brychek.

WOW BRUCE FOUND MY FIRST (CHERRY) POST!that is a great idea and i have often wondered why someone couldnt lay 3 or 4 lines of film together in a timeline with those in the same timeline being in the same position but underneath. this could easily be done on a computer with someone savy enough to do it. if you wanted to stop the timeperiod, you could blow up the view you wanted and compare it with another film.namaste'
