Possible Photograph of Joseph Smith Jun.
Copy of a Drawing "The Two Martyrs", depicted by Sutcliff Maudsley, who drew Joseph Smith numerous times, in person, before his death. Notice how his lapel has a darker upper, and matches that of this man from a Smith Family Album.

In this video above, I use a feature called “layering”, using an apple ipad and pencil to outline certain features of the man in my CDV, and I simply drag that raw outline onto the death mask of Joseph Smith. See my page Facial Analysis for a deeper analysis of this man’s face, to the death mask of Joseph Smith:https://www.plausiblephotographofjosephsmithjunior.com/facial-analysis.html

My analysis of Skull 1, refuting the claim that Skull 1 has been for sure proven to be Hyrum Smith’s. The reasoning in 1920s was that there was a hole going through the side of Skull 1- and it was reported that Hyrum was shot in the head, but he was shot in the face and that one bullet could not have busted the two sides of his skull, having read all the accounts of the murders from those inside of the jail (WIllard Richards and John Taylor) and those who were outside when Joseph Smith fell and then was propped up and shot repeatedly (I believe that was too painful for Willard to watch or describe, he just describes a huge crowd and knowing he was for sure dead and had “no signs of life”), only Joseph Smith was shot repeatedly, Hyrum was ONLY described as having one bullet hole to the left of his nose, that one bullet could not have broken the left and right parietal bones, Joseph Smith did go out head first and landed on his head (which would have broken his skull, esp. the sides of his skull since he fell on his “left side” per Willard and those outside said he fell on his head...).
