Even Hoover told LBJ that someone was impersonating LHO at the embassy. I suspect the typed letter to the Russian embassy was also done by someone else. This was all part of the effort to implicate the KGB and Castro in the upcoming assassination.
If we're to believe in the legitimacy of the Mexico City photos supplied by the Cuban government (to the HSCA) and the earlier photo supplied by the CIA in '63, there were two different men impersonating Oswald (neither resembling the historic LHO). The Cuban picture shows a slight, blond-haired fellow matching descriptions of some consulate personnel (and maybe Sylvia Duran in her unaltered remarks). The CIA picture, supposedly from the Russian Embassy, shows a much larger fellow who kind of looks like a football player. Agree that the letter was probably a forgery to blame Castro and Cuba.
