The One Great Find Of The Post’s Chandra Series

Looks like D.C. police got a totally sweet makeover computer game for Christmas in 2000. “Chapter Five: A Secret Meeting” of the Post’s “Who Killed Chandra Levy” series includes an AP image of several doctored photographs the police circulated following Levy’s disappearance. The photographs show Levy’s face crudely Photoshopped beneath four completely ridiculous hairdos.

Find it here. You will not be disappointed.

One imagined makeover has Levy sporting a blonde, feathered Farrah Faucet cut. Two photos top Levy with short afros; one with bangs, one without. One photo appears to have molded Levy’s hair in the shape of a coonskin cap.

Good work, Posties. Readers, stay tuned for the next installment in “Unearthing Old AP File Photos: The Twelve Part Series.”

    Is that a joke? It looks like one of those magnetic hair things on a clown like when we were kids - Wooly Willy or Hairdo Harriet

    Poor woman, I just wish she could rest in peace.
