Page 24 - Faking the original Spare
P. 24

There are so many copies of the Andrew/Giuffre photograph in circulation,
     without a negative it is difficult to prove an original. I personally have

     created over sixty copies for the production of this book. To find the truth

     I shall only concentrate on the copy produced by Thomas for The Mail on

     Sunday.



     Thomas is photographed in his hotel room holding the original photograph

     of  Andrew/ Giuffre which featured in The Mail on Sunday news story.
     There are things about this photograph also which are not quite right. The

     fingers do not appear to be holding the photograph. Also the photograph

     Thomas is holding has been cropped on the left hand side.

     (Please see Fig. 12)



     I have enlarged the photograph and have discovered the photograph has a

     border on all four sides of the photograph. Where the white boarder overlaps
     Thomas’s dark suit; instead of standing out in bright white it disappears into

     the same colour as Thomas’s suit. (Please see Fig. 13).



     The border surrounding the original photograph in the Mail on Sunday’s

     video (Please see Fig. 11) is three times wider than the borders on the

     photograph Thomas is holding (Please see Fig. 12).



     Where the border has been removed at the bottom of the photograph is also

     where there was a white gap in Andrew’s trousers; suggesting this was the

     reason for the removal of these two borders.
