Goodwin lot #77 - J.L. Wilkinson?
 
3 Attachment(s)
This may have been discussed here before. I don't see how one can say with any certainty that this guy (below left) is J. L Wilkinson. The real Wilkinson is below center and right. The photo quality isn't good enough for me to do the kind of things I usually like to do, but we can see that the ear shape isn't right. What is the evidence that this guy is Wilkinson?

I agree. Funny that SGC, who is so loathe to slab cards with ID's which are clear and unmistakable, would take the chance on this one. I think this may be the case of a mistaken ID taken and being perpetuated. I believe I have seen other copies of this same PC with the same ID. I also agree it doesn't look like him to me.

I'm guessing there is or was some history to it? Maybe the original negative is out there with the ID?

Other than that I can't imagine trying to ID anyone from that example of the picture. It's nearly as bad as most bigfoot or UFO pics.

Mark, I'm attaching an image of the one I used to own, in case it helps. Wish I had higher-res, but this is it:

Did all those people have uni-brows, or does it just appear to be so?
