Friends! One reason many are struggling to believe Lovelady was wearing a jacket over his plaid shirt at the time of the shooting is that the Altgens6 photo appears to show the left sleeve of his plaid shirt



But appearances can be deceptive!
Notice how Lovelady's left arm gets oddly WIDER as it goes down and seems to come out in FRONT of Carl Jones's neck?
That's because we're looking at it upside down
--------------it's not an arm going down
--------------it's an arm raised in the air
--------------by a spectator out in the street!
It doesn't belong to Lovelady!

For purely illustrative purposes so we can all see how our eyes have been tricking us!...

It would be interesting to know whose arm it could be if it isn't Lovelady's.

No wonder Doorwayman in Altgens spooked the investigators so much!

Someone a bit further down the street, Ray. IIRC someone offered a pretty convincing candidate from the Towner film a few years back!

I do not recall making statements attributed to me by MrRayMitcham in this post. Perhaps he can provide any quotes along with his explanation for his statement(s).

"I agree that the azimuth calculations are trivial, but there is a lot of indicative reliance on sunlight shadow calculations relative to the TSBD Bldg Elm St entrance portal and/or the occupants at about 12:01pm/01:00pm CST (12:01/13:00) on 11/22/'63.

I believe that it is Lovelady's arm in the photo, not some unknown down person down the street.

It seems  this is confirmed by bucket filling the shirt that he is wearing in yellow, which shows that it is exactly the same colour. You may have to enlarge to see the detail.
