Familiar Faces in Dealey Plaza

[Paul Rigby]

David Atlee Phillips, aka Maurice Bishop, was Lee Harvey Oswald's CIA handler.

According to Larry Hancock, researcher Gary Buell and David Phillips' nephew, Shawn Phillips, had an email exchange. As Shawn described in the email, Shawn's father, James Phillips, became aware that his brother, David, had in some way been "seriously involved" in the JFK assassination. James and David argued about this vigorously and it resulted in a silent hiatus between them that lasted for almost six years.

As David was dying of lung cancer he called his brother. James asked David pointedly "Were you in Dallas that day?" David answered, "Yes," and James hung up the phone on him.

So, are there photographs of Dealey Plaza in which a David Atlee Phillips lookalike can be spotted?
If not, why not?
Was Phillips in disguise?
Was Phillips in Dallas but not in Dealey Plaza? Perhaps in HL Hunt's office?
Was he in one of the many photographs that were confiscated?

Try Jim Marrs' Crossfire (NY: Carroll & Graf, pbk edition,1990): In the unpaginated photo section at the book's centre, the second page/snap is of the presidential limo not long after leaving Love Field. At the centre back, in a dark suit and shades, directly beneath the sign reading "Liquors," is a man who may, or may not, be DAP.

Also check out the gent in the far right foreground (as the reader views) of the pic, chubby, dark-suited, unsmiling, and very definitely not applauding. I assume it was because he was smoking at the time.

The photo in question is otherwise notable for a prominent number 7 taped to the section of the windscreen in front of Kellerman.
