I observed a few more interesting things, so I had to bump this.

Fromme's head was placed in Wilbert Robinson's body:

Jim Thorpe's head was placed on Jacobson's body. Look carefully at the shoe toungues, sock folds near the shoes, sleeve length , t-shirt color:

Art Fletcher's head was placed on Red Ames' body. Again look at the shoes/socks, and the jersey pinstripes as they go over the left shoulder (viewer's right) near the arm:

The Thorpe photo appears to be a real Frankenstein job...look at the right leg..the photographer moved the angle of the leg and he must have put another cleat on from somewhere else because the angle is completely different from the Jacobson photo.

No I don't think so. Keep in mind that the T-200 card and the photo Tim found are from the same session - but they are not the same photo. So some people have moved somewhat, others hardly at all.

Mark, great detective work placing the two images together. I always thought the Thorpe and Fletcher images looked especially funky on the T200 and now I know why. It was a pretty good hatchet job on Thorpe--look at his right shoulder seam of the jersey, they didn't even try to make them line up. Also, talk about indignity, getting your head placed on the body of an aging Wilbert Robinson could make anyone a little self-concious.

Also just to add something else...not only did they use Ames' body to turn him into Art Fletcher, they also used his body to put McGraw into a jersey (looka t foot placement and hand placemnet--they are the same)
