Hmmm.... I think the blue belongs to Ms. Dean but what I have been seeing as Mr. Lovelady's head sticking out in Towner may in fact be the right elbow of the gentleman you refer to:
So-----------------where in the heck is Mr. Lovelady?
Looking again at Towner, I think the white of Mr. Otis Williams' ample upper frame and raised right arm is NOT the warmer tones we see just above Ms. Dean's behatted head. Those are from Mr. Lovelady after all, who is at this time two steps down from the landing:
Although Wiegman's early doorway frames will show Mr. Lovelady a step higher, it shows everyone else in the same position, and so allows us to make a handy figure-to-figure comparison:
-
Mr. Roy Edward Lewis (
purple arrow)
-
Mr. Lee Harvey Oswald (partially obscured in this Towner frame by flapping object) (
light green arrow)
-
PrayerWOMAN (behind Mr. Oswald--not visible in the below Wiegman frame but evident in Towner) (
olive arrow)
-
Ms. Ruth Dean (
metallic blue arrow)
-
Mr. Otis Williams (
blue arrow)
-
Mr. Billy Lovelady (
orange arrow)
-the person (=
Mrs. Sarah Stanton IMO) shielding eyes with both hands (
pink arrow)
Mr. Lovelady has been cast into partial (fake) shadow in BOTH Towner and Wiegman (they had to harmonize the sunlight conditions across the two films). The red arrow in Towner above marks where the artificial shadow was placed.
Thankfully, Bell, with all it shows of Mr. Lovelady, helps us see what was really there:
