It has the wrong day (Thursday) and the wrong date (23 November 1963), so I
don't think anyone is going to be impressed by your endorsement. This guy is
almost certainly not the man in the photo, as Jack's comparisons have shown.
It certainly looks like Conein to many of the rest of us, but ask youself what is
this guy Adams doing with a fabricated newspaper article? and why would any
one be written up for appearing in a photograph, even in Dealey Plaza, unless
there were some extraordinary reason. They needed a cover for Conein being
captured in a famous photograph. As I recall, it's called "plausible deniability".

When I first looked at Allan Eaglesham's page on "Lucien Conein look-alike was not Conein," my first impression was, "Yes, Allan's right, it's Adams, not Conein." First impressions are usually right. Each man had a reason to be at Dealey Plaza so that's a wash, and the framed newspaper pic on the Adams' family wall of a family member's presence at an historic event is an entirely understandable point of pride (not a "plaque," so stipulated). Looking around for additional photos of Conein, a 1981 video convinces me it wasn't Conein in the Altgen photo, if only because Conein never did develop that extreme "peninsula" prow of hair Adams had, with such a receding hair line on either side. So now will advocates of Conein in the Altgen photo argue Men's Hair Club changed Conein's forehead appearance (!?).
