Who said it was Lovelady?

Who said it was Lovelady?
If that is Lovelady, what happened to the chequered shirt he was wearing in Altgens 6?
Also, Lovelady and Shelley went to the railroad yard after the shots were fired and did not enter the TSBD until several minutes later, so, if this is Lovelady, how did he get to the 6th floor and what was he doing there?

really?
post a picture of Dougherty and we can compare

Mr. BALL - Did you see any other people on the first floor?
Mr. LOVELADY - Oh, yes; by that time there were more; a few of the guys had come in.
Mr. BALL - And you stayed on the first floor then?
Mr. LOVELADY - I would say 30 minutes. And one of the policemen asked me would I take them up on the sixth floor.
Mr. BALL - Did you take them up there?
Mr. LOVELADY - Yes, sir; I sure did.
It looks like the shirt BNL told the FBI he wore.
How many Oswald look a likes are walking around this place?

Although the man does resemble Billy Lovelady...... The man in the photo seems to be a " big strong fellow" ( Roy Truly's description of JD) like Jack Dougherty .

You can see law enforcement is all over the TSBD = that still frame being well after the assassination. This means there was time for people in general to enter/re-enter the TSBD. The thing I find interesting is if you see the Entire Film Clip, the guy bobs down below the boxes in front of him when he sees the camera is aimed at him.

In the clip in Bill Chapman's post or elsewhere?

I believe this clip------------
(https://i.imgur.com/Af0jBO4.jpg)
--------------shows the same part of the sixth floor as that shown in this 11/22/63 photograph:

In both cases the DOWN stairs to the fifth floor are to the cameraman's left.

The Chapman provided clip is Only maybe 2+ seconds in length. It is only a snippet of the clip I have seen. The film clip I have seen is maybe 5 seconds longer and Not as clear as the one Chapman provided. That Chapman snippet is Very Clear.

I have seen the clip posted on this Forum. At the time the clarity of the film clip was so sketchy that it was being debated as to whether we were actually looking at Oswald hiding in "plain sight". His ducking down behind that stack of boxes adding to the alleged Oswald possibility.

Would be interested to see it. The person doesn't seem to be hiding at all in the short earlier clip earlier in this thread.

The snippet we are looking at is only 2+ seconds in length and replayed over & over. When viewing the Longer version, the speculation was that once that guy saw the camera, he then ducked down behind the stack of boxes.

The previous copy of this footage that I saw, made it difficult to clearly see the shirt this guy is wearing. It looks like he is wearing a sweatshirt over a tee shirt. With regard to the guys that were laying flooring/plywood on the 6th floor that day, a sweatshirt would be fitting attire. When they Zoom in on this guy, it appears he is talking. His jabbering would fit if he were simultaneously being asked different questions by different members of law enforcement. Possible questions coming from different sources would also fit his head rotation.

A sweat shirt? when some employees were working in their Tee shirts?......But do agree that the guy seems to be wearing two shirts..... a Tee shirt and another shirt.
The film clip is very brief....and it MAY have been taken before the rifle was discovered...... The guy seems to be very nervous and is watching to see who came up the stairs behind him. The brightly lit windows over the man's right shoulder are the windows that were in the west NORTH wall at the top of the stairs in the NW corner of the sixth floor. ( The west elevator is visible) But Boone needed a flashlight to see down at the bottom of the chasm of boxes when he spotted a small portion of the butt of the carcano which was lying ON THE FLOOR ( not jammed between boxes of books) Perhaps tall guy knew the rifle was there and was nervous about it being found.

Still alive is Wes Frazier he could make an ID?
Jack Daugherty testified. He said that Bill Shelly told him Oswald had this big package.
Bill Shelly testified and no such mention was made by him.

Looks like Bill Lovelady wearing a tee shirt to me. Don't see any nervousness or thought of hiding. Can't find any longer clip on the internet.

Not if he's standing on a box or something. And the box in front may be making him look bulkier than he is.
According to a document found by Mr Scully, Mr Jack Dougherty had blond hair.

Hmmm... I always assumed he was Mr Lovelady. But where's the conspicuous bald spot?

And it looks to me like he has a light-colored garment on over his tshirt.

When he turns his head to the right, the back of his head blends in with the hat of the man behind him. This gives him a 'ponytail' effect!

The image is quite fuzzy and the lighting poor so hard to draw too many conclusions re the bald spot I think. There dies seem to be a colour change in the tee shirt that looks like another garment. Is the another image of the tee shirt Lovelady wore to compare? Have seen glimpses under the red patterned shirt.
The face and profile look like Lovelady and he said he was on the sixth floor but open to different ideas.

We don't have any photos of Mr Dougherty!

The guy inside the TSBD does Not appear to be wearing a button-up shirt. I see No Trace at all of a Collar of any kind. The provided photo of Dougherty allegedly taken on 11/22/63 shows him wearing a button-up shirt. That guy in the Altgens photo including the shirt he is wearing looks more like Daugherty vs the film snippet man we see inside the TSBD after the shooting.

That many people close together in the upper 6th floor around the hottest part of the day , their combined BTU generating a lot of additional heat, it’s understandable someone might take off their flannel shirt

An astute assessment & keen observation there, Mr. Ford. with your highlighting arrows.
There's a strong resemblance there of Billy Lovelady, but as you pointed out void of the prominent bald spot.
Any chance Billy Nolan Lovelady had any male siblings?
-
Doesn't the guy look very tall?
If we don't have a picture of Dougherty, do you know what height he was? Is that it in military records?

Then there's this Lovelady-like fellow in the background (first floor, same film----Alyea):

So what exactly is going on with the Extreme Width of the opening to the stairwell? That width would be more in line with a service elevator.

Yes, that is a freight elevator isn't it? If this was the one on the sixth floor the stairs would be to the left. It being the East freight elevator on a lower floor - firth -would fit I think.
-

Based on all the controversy about Lovelady and plaid shirt and the resemblance with White. He was not on duty that day and the logical move was that from Dealey Plaza, he went to DPD to check if he can help out somehow. He was waiting in 327 office when Oswald brought in at 2PM and I believe he was sent to check Oswald rooming house which would explain how he had one of the BY photos.

Do You see any room for a doorway/stairwell to the Left of that possible Freight Elevator? I have seen pics of that doorway/stairwell there on the West Side of the 6th Floor. The FBI also Filmed a re-creation of Oswald retrieving the rifle from the hidey-slot and then walking to/through the doorway and down the stairwell to the 2nd Floor. I did Not see a Freight Elevator situated to the Immediate right of that doorway/stairwell. There is something SCREWY with this pic being proffered as showing the area that the rifle was found along with the stairway/stairwell that Oswald allegedly used.

That is what I am saying. There isn't a stairwell to the left of the freight elevator so think this is a lower floor by the other freight elevator and not on the sixth floor. Apart from the title of the clip saying it's on the sixth who has claimed it is where the rifle was found on the sixth?

Looking at the floor plan for Six--------------

Two things I think. One is the distance between the elevator and the wall the window is in. Seems too narrow for the stairwell as per the plan. the second is how far into the room the elevator is i.e. how far back you can see on the right hand side again compared to the plan.
The location in the clip looks the same as you one in the other photograph - absolutely. Just trying to make it fit with the plans I've seen of the sixth and the fifth.
Thinking out loud and happy to be shown to be wrong.

Not sure I quite follow you here, Mr Turner. The stairwell is not between the elevator and the window-----it's over in the northwest corner.
And yes, the floor plan misleadingly stretches the elevator all the way to the wall. But that's not just the case for the sixth floor. Here e.g. is the fifth floor plan:

Thanks for posting that floor plan. If that floor plan is correct, could the photo be of the OTHER TSBD? There were 2. Your right about that set-back to the Right of the Freight Elevator. That set-back runs several feet back/behind the freight elevator vs the floor plan showing a wall running right alongside the freight elevator. Also, we do not see ANY window(s) or light from any window(s) on the freight elevator side of the building.

Another issue with that photo is there were books stacked and laying around almost all the way to the doorway/stairwell. There was a semi-aisle between the stacks of books and the windows almost all the way down from the snipers nest to the stairwell. We see plenty of open space between that last stack of boxes and the freight elevator. This photo has Numerous Issues along with Not lining up with the floor plan for the 6th floor.

One assumes the area in front of the elevator was kept clear for loading and off-loading.
But if you know of other 11/22/63 images of the sixth floor showing something other than the open space arrangement we see here, I'll be all eyes! Thumb1:

Not only did this help me further understand where the stairwell was and the orientation of the photographs it also showed the floor in front of it to be quite clear as in the photograph .

Based on that floor plan, the Distance from the Freight Elevator to the Stairwell is LESS than 20 FEET. Generally speaking, You could Spit from the Freight Elevator to the Stairwell. No Way!

Just over 20 feet I would say, and that looks ok to me. No spitting please by the way!

How do you know there was a resemblance with White without a picture to compare? Genuine question because the only one posted was posted by someone else and it didn't look like the same person to me.

I have seen the Alyea Footage of Lt Day allegedly pulling the rifle from its' hiding slot for the very 1st time. That Alyea footage is Not filmed from the "elevator looking out".

Dear Mr. Rankin:
Reference is xxxx to your letter dated March 10, 1964, requesting a signed statement be obtained from each person known to have been in the Texas School Book Depository Building on November 22, 1963.
Inclosed for your assistance are two copies each of 73 signed statements obtained from those individuals known to have been in the Texas School Book Depository Building on November 22, 1963. Every effort was made to comply with your request that six specific items be incorporated in each statement; however, in many instances the individual furnishing the statement was unaware of the address of persons referred to therein and this information, of necessity, had to be omitted.
Statements were not obtained from the following three Texas School Book Depository Building employees as they were absent from work on November 22, 1963:
Mrs. Joseph A. (Vickie) Davis
Mr. Franklin Kaiser
Mrs. James L. (Dottiie) Lovelady
This complies with your request and no further action is being taken in this matter.
Sincerely yours,
J. Edgar Hoover

Any chance this gentleman in bold-highlight was related to Billy Nolan Lovelady someone how (sibling, cousin)?
IF so, any chance he simply was by the office to pick up something for his wife, and suddenly became swept up in a defining moment in history?
He certainly would fit nicely into the fact that no one within the collective CE 1381 statements saw any strangers that day, meaning could it be he was someone most of the folks on scene that afternoon was already familiar w/given his wife's employment there?

TSBD 6th floor stairwell area? Not hardly. If you look at the FBI re-creation of Oswald hiding the gun and then going down the stairwell, the gun hidey hole is extremely close to the stairwell. You guys are getting bamboozled.
If you watch that clip I posted, there is a brief moment when you see the elevator in the background as they lift the rifle out of its location. It's not found right over by the stairwell according to that.

Not a problem, Mr Turner!
Here's where the cameraman was standing when he took the photo below:

Take a look at the FBI re-creation of Oswald going from the snipers nest, squirreling away the rifle, and then walking to/down the stairwell. No partial peering through the gates of a freight elevator with this FBI video.

Hmm...the mention of Frankie & Fred Kaiser is so indicative of your keen powers of discernment, Mr. Ford, but IF he's telling the truth we have to be mindful that Frankie said he was elsewhere on Friday, November 22, 1963.
So, IF he's being truthful that leaves us with the following candidates in response to your thread's challenging question ---->
*Jack Dougherty
*Billy Nolan Lovelady, given his same day affidavit -----> https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth338214/m1/1/
*His older brother by two years, James L. "Jim" Lovelady, simply picking something up for his wife Dottie on her day off, and becoming swept up in a defining moment in history.
*Fred Kaiser (unless of course, he--like his brother Frankie--was elsewhere that afternoon, and J. Edgar Hoover simply didn't annotate it in his letter to Rankin and only mentioned Frankie instead of them both). I'll comb through the CE 1381 statements some time this weekend to determine IF Fred was included within those statements.
*Someone yet undetermined
Given his same day affidavit above, we have to wonder why Billy Lovelady revamped his actions so many times...

Gentlemen,
Nice work with your timely contributions and insights shared above. Wish we had some idea when the photo of Mr. Ford's who-is-this-man? was taken, so we could factor in the timing-sequence to match respective WC testimonies, especially that of Dougherty (Jack) who--per his testimony retraced his steps back upstairs looking for Roy Truly ---->
Mr. Ball: Did you hear Mr. Truly yell anything up the elevator shaft?
Mr. Dougherty: I didn't hear anybody yell.
Mr. BALL. Or, did you see Mr. Truly?
Mr. DOUGHERTY. Well, when the FBI men---I imagine it was who it was---he showed me his credentials, but he asked me who the manager was, and I told him, "Mr. Truly." He told me to go find him. Well, I didn't know where he was so I started from the first floor and Just started looking for him, and .by the time I got to the sixth floor, they had found a gum and shells.

No. Clearly different buttons on the shirt.

Can you rule that out? To dismiss this as being Bill Lovelady from him not wearing his plaid shirt, which he could have taken off, and without us really knowing what he was wearing under that plaid shirt seems a bit of a leap. It may not be Bill Lovelady but it maybe him having removed his plaid shirt.

Mr. LOVELADY - I would say 30 minutes. And one of the policemen asked me would I take them up on the sixth floor.
Mr. BALL - Did you take them up there?
Mr. LOVELADY - Yes, sir; I sure did.
I read that BNL was 5' 8" so it is likely him standing on a box and looking on.
Because there was very little available light...his baldness and plaid shirt did not show up in the darkness of the room.
Mr Chapman [I believe] mentioned a longer clip but so far it has not been produced. I would say looking at the full face pictures it would be B N Lovelady.

If that is Mr Lovelady, then there's no way he's wearing his plaid shirt-------------when he turns away from the camera, note the visibility of the white tshirt's neck ring all the way to the back of the head. Impossible with the plaid shirt.

Yes, I played about with the levels of the image from the clip in Photoshop and it does really just look as if the neck line is a different colour from the rest of the shirt rather than there being a second shirt on top. The other darkened image you have just posted suggest something similar - but as have said on other threads you have to be careful of course when 'enhancing' images as things may appear which aren't really there.

Does anyone know when Jack Daugherty died? or if by some small chance he is still alive?
Dougherty was 40 in 1964 which would make him 97 if still alive, that would be younger than Jim Leavelle when he died.

I read somewhere that he was told to wear that one and told them it wasn't the one he wore that day but they said to wear it anyway. Sounds odd, but will see if I can find where I read that.

'Lovelady later explained that when he was interviewed and photographed by the FBI, he had not been told to wear the same shirt he had worn on the day of the assassination and that, in fact, he had been wearing a long-sleeved, plaid shirt when he was standing in the Texas School Book Depository doorway.'

It is likely that he [at sometime] took that plaid shirt off upstairs probably because it was getting uncomfortably warm in the stuffy warehouse around that time.

Lovelady, as will be seen, was very reluctant to have anyone photograph him. Had Altgens been using color film that day, there might be no controversy concerning the identity of the man in the doorway, for the color of the shirt (along with the pattern) might have established his identity beyond doubt.
...Lovelady's Shirt--The FBI showed a decided reluctance to interview James Altgens even though he took some crucial pictures and was probably the closest spectator to the President when he was hit. When the controversy produced by the Altgens photograph forced the FBI to photograph Billy Lovelady to establish that he was the man-in-the-doorway, and that it was not Oswald, they called Lovelady for a photo session. The pictures they took are shown here. Since the whole purpose was to prove that it was Lovelady, and since the man-in-the-doorway was obviously wearing a long sleeve shirt, one may wonder why the FBI photographed Lovelady in a short sleeve one. There are three different versions of why the FBI photographed Billy Lovelady in a short sleeve shirt: (1) that he had not been told to wear the shirt he had on at the time, (2) that the FBI told him not to bother wearing the shirt he had on at the time, and (3) that Lovelady told the FBI he had been wearing the short sleeve shirt. The report issued by the House Select Committee on Assassinations states: Lovelady was reported to have been wearing a short sleeved red and white, vertically striped shirt. Lovelady later explained that when he was interviewed and photographed by the FBI, he had not been told to wear the same shirt he had worn on the day of the assassination and that, in fact, he had been wearing a long-sleeved, plaid shirt when he was standing in the Texas School Book Depository doorway. (HSCA, Vol. VI, p. 287) Are we to believe that J. Edgar Hoover's vaunted FBI didn't think it important to ask Lovelady to be photographed in the same shirt that he was wearing at the time? In his book The Killing of a President, Robert Groden states (p. 187): When the FBI called Lovelady to come down and be photographed, they told him not to bother to wear the same shirt. When they released the photograph, they stated that it was the same shirt, creating the controversy over whether it was Oswald or Lovelady in the Depository doorway. Neglecting to tell Lovelady to wear the same shirt is bad enough, but to tell him not to bother wearing it is simply incomprehensible. Then they not only photographed him in the wrong shirt, but issued a report stating that it was the right one. Can this really be true? Is it possible that any agent of the FBI could be so utterly inept and incompetent as to display such a cavalier attitude? If so, it puts the FBI in the same league with the Dallas Police Department which failed to take a transcript of Oswald's 12 hours of interrogation. There is no doubt that Lovelady told the FBI that he was wearing the short sleeve shirt as it is noted in several FBI reports. The photos are labeled "Composite photograph of Mr. Billy Nolan Lovelady consisting of three photographs taken by an agent of our Dallas, Texas Office on February 29, 1964." (Photographic Whitewash, p. 69) On the same date as the photo session, and FBI report states that Lovelady told them he was wearing this shirt:

Thumb1:
There is no bald spot on this man where Lovelady has his bald spot.

With all this effort to demonstrate who it isn't...no one has revealed who it is.
Walt's guess [Elvis] proves demonstratively invalid :-\

Yes--------I thought I'd found it but it turned out to be an artefact. Frustrating! :'(

Yes, I played about with the levels of the image from the clip in Photoshop and it does really just look as if the neck line is a different colour from the rest of the shirt rather than there being a second shirt on top. The other darkened image you have just posted suggest something similar - but as have said on other threads you have to be careful of course when 'enhancing' images as things may appear which aren't really there.
Good find Nicholas. The shirt is white on the top band. To me it looks like it could be another shirt underneath and not like the one you posted.

What if [whoever it is] is standing on a box [because he is actually short]?

It's hard to determine if the man is standing on something ....But if he were standing on a box of books he would tower over everybody in the vicinity......IMO he is a big man.....and he is NOT standing on anything.

really?

The play of light/darkness on the white neck line of a white tshirt can be sooooooo tricky!
The man below, for example, is definitely wearing a one-tone white tshirt with a white neckline, but you wouldn't think it from looking at him here........
