IMO, Murphy has the 1930 photo shown in an incorrect orientation. It makes the track look raised instead of depressed.
I think that this is the correct orientation.

The second photograph of Crew shows him holding a cast of a print apparently made by a Mullins/Wallace alderfoot.
Sunday, October 5, 1958, Humboldt Times has the picture of reporter Andrew Genzoli and Jerry Crew with a ruler and a 16 inch alderfoot cast.
The cast in the Crew photo seems to have more of a double ball; I didn't think it was the one you show, but perhaps you're right. That projection sticking out along the side seems to identify it.
This time Jerry Crew was prepared with a supply of plaster-of-Paris, and he made a series of casts of both right and left feet. Two days later he took time off to drive to Eureka on personal business and he carried the casts along with him to show a friend. While he was there somebody told Editor Genzoli about him. When Genzoli met Jerry Crew and saw his trophies, he realized he had some real, live news on his hands. He ran a frontpager on it with photographs the next day. Then the balloon went up. The wire services picked it up and almost every paper ion the country printed it, while inquiry flooded in from abroad.
...the Hubei Wild Man Research Association is looking for volunteers from around the world to join them on another expedition to look for the Yeren.
"We want the team members to be devoted, as there will be a lot a hard work in the process," Luo Baosheng, vice president of the group, told Xinhua.
Y'all probably already had a good laugh about this a long time ago, but just in case you didn't---Joan Ocean has seen a Bigfoot!!!![]()
