Although the image in the eBay auction was listed as Don Choate, it actually shows Chuck Hiller.

you're a thousand times the historian that I am, and I would tell anyone who cares to take your judgment over mine any day of the week and twice on Sunday... I don't see it in this case, which is just me lookin' at photos. It may or may not be Don Choate, I have no idea who the devil Don Choate is/was or what he in fact looks/looked like... but, to me, I don't see any real resemblance to any image of Chuck Hiller that I have or have ever seen.
Hiller has thinner lips and far more prominent cheekbones...
edited to add: I wish the supposed Don Choate photo showed him smiling... then we could compare teeth with the snaggletoothed Hiller!
