Hi Iron City,
It would be good to track it down, but I suspect that the 'clever photographic tricks' are on the print the NASM's got. That sort of retouching was very common with publicity shots - particularly those used by newspapers and magazines, and is nothing to do with censorship, often it's to drop out a background or enhance the contrast in a print for newspaper publication.
My feel is definitely NOT hawk, or deH, but there's better people to comment here than me - though it does have a homebuilt feel...
Cheers
James
