No problem David. And I agree about Wikipedia,
As I said I cant vouch for the photo , but it looks the same man to me, just ravaged by time & disease. {There but for the grace of God....

}
Some more pics. of Tippi as the English named him, {Spelling can vary it was said in a childlike nuance & more phonetic than anything, in my impression.} I think the shown picture help link the to earlier pics perhaps? taken sometime between the other two under discusian.
I see Ibrahin agrees with me, as well...
It Would be fascinating to be 100% certain though.
