Description
Photograph was edited for publication purposes.; Photograph included in the exhibit: “Edited for Publication: Photographic Manipulations in the Los Angeles Herald Examiner”
Arrows show tiny craters in a piece of concrete taken from the chicken coop where Walter Collins was killed. Though the concrete was scoured, minute specks of blood remained in the craters, and these were sufficient to prove them human blood.
