I am reminded of some lyrics from a great old song, My Funny Valentine:

Your looks are laughable
Unphotographable

The Baby from the Towner film is truly unphotographable.



That is not the same child, and the one on the right isn't a child at all. It is not a photographic image. Notice that there is no face peeking out from under that orange hat. Notice that there are no distinguishing features to the white coat or to the body inside the coat, such as arms. It is a totally contrived picture. 

And on the left, how could that mother possibly be holding that boy so vertically and so far away from herself? When have you ever done that or seen anybody do it in your life? And she is doing it so effortlessly, as if he's light as a feather. 

The JFK assassination is probably the most photographically altered and falsified event in history. These are both false images, except they were falsified in different ways. The Altgens Woman and Boy were real people from a real photograph, but they weren't there on Elm Street. They were placed into the picture from somewhere else. But, the Towner Woman and Baby were not real at all; they didn't exist anywhere. They are art; nothing more than art, Machiavellian art.
