That image is a PGF frame that comes right after 352. It captures some actual greenery which confuses the viewer into thinking that it is a different location and season. Full frame is below.      

^^^     Always good to get the facts wherever we may find them.    This whole PGF Hype issue is starting to remind me of the 1980's POW MIA issue: At the end of the Vietnam war the North Vietnamese may (or may not) have kept some American POWs.    Movies like Uncommon Valor, and Rambo II were based on tins concept.   (While I think it is remotely possible, we need evidence).     Great claims need proof.  I remember back then the news reported a bombshell photo said to have shown 3 US soldiers now older and run down being kept by the North Vietnamese.   As you can see the reported and hyped photo at the top (below) and the actual source photo below it.  It actually comes from Soviet Farmers years before.   The evidence -at least in this case of MIA POWS -didn't live up to the hype.               I have all the sympathy for those involved in this issue and they deserve to have honest answers.   However, with any controversy there are always going to be people who will take advantage based on their motivations to cheat or sell an agenda.   (And yes, I know in the case of my POWs example we can even imagine our own government might be motivated to hide such evidence)     I highly expect this new PGF film controversy "Evidence" will go in a similar direction --->   Lots of hype but not much else.  Wanting something to be true is not the same as actually being true.      

Not only is it not the pre-Patty Bigfoot, that exact still image appears to come from National Wildlife Magazine's 1970 October/November issue, which carried an article called "On the Trail of Bigfoot."  That article includes a photo montage; this exact picture is at the center of the montage.  The overblown green in this photo triggered a memory; upon review, the photo matches down to the "notch" in Patty's left (trail) leg.   Trust but verify - the entire article is in the P-G Film reference library at   

^^^ Works for me, both in my post and in the section you quoted.  Beyond that, my computer skills offer no help. However, you can go to the Bigfoot Forums Library about a third of the way down the home page and check the Orangutans, Gorillas, and Gorilla Suits thread under Historic Materials. 

The link isn't working, has it been taken down?
