Bad Penny Crew Composite Photo
The only existing photo showing all seven members
of the Bad Penny crew was damaged. Sometime over the 62 years
since the end of WWII one third of the picture had been cut
off; the heads and shoulders were missing from the top four
men.
Glen Mitchell, author of “A Bad Penny
Always Comes Back,” asked the staff at Walkerville
Publishing (producers of his book) if they could possibly
create a composite photo using other snapshots of the missing
men. Walkerville Publishing rose to the challenge and graphic
designer, Chuck Rees (designer of this Web site and a Photoshop
master), painstakingly recreated the photo using a variety
of other photos. He even rebuilt the barracks behind the
men.
Several copies of the photo were made and presented to crew
members or their families.
