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

They altered many of Oswald's photos, and some massively. The middle photo here, they gave a complete makeover to. They lengthened and thickened his hair. They changed his aspect ratio to make him look 40 pounds heavier, and I mean really stocky. Look at that burly neck on him. They also repaired his t-shirt, making it look brand-new. And they also altered his outer shirt, as I'll explain.

Why did they do all that? They did it to distinguish Oswald from the Man in the Doorway; to make them look miles apart.

So, the Doorway Man had short, neat hair, so they gave Oswald long, unruly hair. His hair definitely wasn't as long as we see there. The Doorway Man looks slender, so they changed his aspect ratio to add about 40 pounds to him in the middle photo. And they were also worried that his distinctive outer shirt would identify him as the Doorway Man. So, they folded his collar under on his right side. However, they left his left collar alone because its distinctiveness, with the button hook, got covered up in the Altgens photo with the phony guy in the black tie, who wasn't there. But look closely at that construction in the center photo and imagine if they had let it show in the Altgens photo. That's why they put that black tie man in there.

So, the reality is that in some images, Oswald's t-shirt looks stretched and tattered and torn, also paper-thin like it's ready for the rag box. But, in other photos, his t-shirt looks quite normal. It's the tattered and deformed ones that are real; the others they fixed. But, they didn't fix all of them. Some of them got through, exposing their evil handiwork. It was all about distancing Oswald from the Man in the Doorway. If Doorman was X, they tried to make Oswald Y.
