Scull Bruno Magli Photographs

15 items · 15 photograph · 12 with detail pages

At the center of this group is Harry Scull’s September 26, 1993 photograph of O.J. Simpson at Rich Stadium, described during the civil trial as purportedly showing Bruno Magli shoes and challenged by the defense as inauthentic. Contact sheets, negatives, enlargements, and technical exhibits were used to examine frame alignment, film marks, perspective, color, and claimed alteration, while Robert Groden’s anomaly and retouching claims were contested in questioning. Photographs and negatives made by E.J. Flammer at the same event, along with contemporaneous video and outfit-comparison images, provided additional views; William Bodziak’s boards compared visible shoe characteristics with the Bruno Magli Lorenzo pattern.
