Each artist showed her in the fashion of his day. I then computer enhanced the newspaper's picture and obtained even more information that backs my claim that this is NOT Joan's armor. Under computer enhancement it is seen that from the mid-line to the sides of the breast plate that the armor falls back sharply which would give little or no room for her breasts. Joan's armor would have been rounded outward to accommodate her breasts. For Ms. Broer, the argument as to whether this armor actually belonged to Joan or not was settled by a close examination of the gauntlets.
Most surviving suits come from the sixteenth century.
Mr. Souzy's armor is unusually old and appears to be in excellent condition. One final repudiation, Mr. Souzy states that his armor has 'chinks and dents corresponding to her war wounds. Let us look at this more closely. The word 'chink' means, a crack or fissure, narrow opening. Joan's armor would have more than some dents and narrow cracks in the armor plate because she was injured by powerful, armor piercing projectiles.
