I agree with you assessment. I agree that many Oswald photos appear strange and I really do not care for any of the possible tramp IDs - Sturgis, Hunt, Holt, Gedney etc. I really don't think it is any of those people at this point.
Here is an interesting image of Beverly Oliver from James Richards' vast image collection. I find the man on the far right very interesting. He went by the name Emmit Anderson but this of course was an alias.
I believe the Tramps are nothing more than a sideshow but finding this man's true identity may prove fruitful.
Regarding James Arthur Lewis, he did his best work as part of a trio of operatives that included Richard Whatley and Bobby Willis. David Morales handled these men with great success in many anti-Castro operations.
Regarding the "Emmit Anderson" image -- It may be attributable to non-sinister processes resulting in the photo's decay (multiple generations, age), but this figure's hairline appears to be altered. Herein he offers a very JFK-esque portrait.
And what hapend to Ms. Oliver's face?
And speaking of James Richards: Would that his collections and his presence were gracing these cyber pages.

hi zach, the photo is originally from jack white,he is and has been close friends with her for many years, most or perhaps all the info , about her, has come through him, info and photos she has shared with him he has,with her permission. her husband the gangster,is on the left, name gone right now, of course, shame on me, as far as anyone taking a guess at their comparisons, as James has posted and said many times, his are also guesses, except all those sent to him off shore, that are id beforehand.that have been sent in the past, as he has made clear. ..so anyones guess is a good as the next, here are a few for your files,if you have not gotten them previously, fwtaw... mainly Jack's composite's,
take care..b
Read the last short paragraph of this letter, and there were others tram0s taken off other cars on the other side of the plaza, south, that day, but there has never been any further information about them, i wonder why...
Well trouble is we do not know for sure, many times all we have is our thinkies,whomever they are long, long gone, and we have been left behind, wth the record mess, they call research......... Zach here i think is a clearer photo, of beverly with her husband larry ronco, at the pool...b
Thanks for the great photos. I seem to remember that Larry Hancock also wrote a while back that there was another set of "tramps" that day that were never photographed or ID'd.
More stuff to keep everyone running in circles it appears. I still think the tramps are nothing more than a confusing meaningless spectacle.
The provenance of this photo is of great interest to me. Does a first generation print exist? If so, is it available? Who is the earliest known JFK researcher to possess it?
Repeated scrutiny reinforces my sense that "Anderson's" hairline has been crudely extended over the forehead and along his left vertical border. If such is the case, it may have been done to disguise the figure's similarity to the tall tramp.
