I am amazed by people measuring objects in photographs and expecting accurate results, even those with something to compare directly. Any tilt of the head in the third plane and change in lighting affects the results in photographic comparisons. I prefer to have the subject state if it is him and then try to ascertain if he is telling the truth.
I do not know of Tosh ever denying it. Back when I first joined EF in 04 and "met" Tosh he was working with a brilliant poster Tim Carroll, who sadly died in 06. It was well known then that this was Tosh. Tosh and I became friends because of his long standing friendship- from the 50's- with my deep cover pal Jay Harrison. (Who also passed 5/25/05. I miss him every day). Jay knew this was Tosh. So did Simkin which is where I first saw the pic.
And I totally agree about the hairline. It matches Tosh not Sturgis.
