The Two NPIC Zapruder Film Events: Signposts Pointing to the Film's Alteration

[Jan Klimkowski]

I realize we believe the film was altered - some of us at least - I would like to get past that conclusion and work on HOW it was done... specifically,
while identifying more of the anomolies that support the conclusion

David - your analysis is interesting.

However, Doug Horne in the OP of this thread has given the most convincing account yet of what was done, and where it was done, to the original rushes.

My working hypothesis is that the Time Life Zapruder, and the variations on Zapruder as shown to Greg and others, are all cut downs of a master film which has never been shown to the public or any JFK researcher.

The master film would provide a genuine historical record of what happened in Dallas.

Time Life Zapruder, and the various Zapruderettes, provide tantalising clues by omission or alteration, but do not provide a genuine historical record.

Given this, I think endless analysis of a deliberately corrupted and partial text (Time Life Zapruder) is essentially a distraction.

In short, the master film might help answer deep political questions, whilst Time Life Zapruder and the Zapruderettes are akin to Waiting for the Man, humming his song.
