Martin Shackelford Through The Years
Martin Shackelford, of Saginaw, Michigan, is a well-known
and respected JFK researcher of the conspiracy persuasion. He has kindly made
available to me a series of photographs of him from 1964 through 2005, which I
present here as the next step in my continuing campaign "Posters are people,
too" for the JFK newsgroup alt.assassination.jfk. This is the fifth photo show in the series, the first
four being Steve Barber,
Rob Spencer,
John McAdams, and
Pamela McElwain-Brown.
One of the photos may be of particular interest to people who
have followed the discussions about Judyth Vary Baker. It shows Martin with
Judyth, Anna Lewis, and Howard Platzman.
Enjoy!
