Oswald in the doorway: the blog of the Oswald Innocence Campaign, by Ralph Cinque

It's been a lively day at the OIC. This came in from Jim Marrs concerning my post about Marguerite Oswald and her strange photos of Oswald, including one that seemed to be based on TIME magazine art. 

Today at 3:52 PM

Hey Ralph,

If you will check out the well-known photo of Oswald holding up his handcuffed hands (See Groden's "The Search for Lee Harvey Oswald" pg. 168.) you will find the face is identical to the Time cover. Apparently, the Time artist drew from this photo, but omitted his mottled shirt and raised fist, which by the way, was used quite effectively to suggest that Lee was raising his fist in a communist salute. Of course, he was merely showing off his handcuffs.

Here's the photo to which Jim is referring:

 I agree completely. That is it. That is what the TIME artist was working off, although he took some liberties, such as, removing Oswald's shirt, exaggerating the head tilt, and lowering his gaze.  Anything to make him look deranged. 

But, this settles something; the photo on Marguerite Oswald's wall was totally bogus because there was no such photo. 

No such photo existed. There was only the above photo of him raising his hands to the press to show them that his hands were cuffed.  So, where did Marguerite Oswald get the above non-existent photo? And notice that you can tell it isn't really a photo. It looks more like a drawing. It's very similar to the one from TIME magazine but with a different background. But, where did she get it?  I don't know. But, what it establishes is her phoniness. What I am saying is that someone was helping her brandish an image, a phony image as Oswald's mother, and that included getting her that picture. The Marguerite Oswald of fame was not legit.  She was a fake! She was not his mother! No real mother would put such awful pictures of her son on the wall.
