The passport was found among the possessions of "Creole Thrush" has its share of mystery.
He was issued at the Consulate Argentina in Nice on December 13, 1932. Mrs. Clara Koser
published photographs of the latter's passport singer on your page:
http://gardel.us/pasaporte_1933
Analyze it takes compared to the photographs posted on the page: http:// www.gardelweb.com/gardel-pasaporte-de-1932.htm , which tells a story about Johnny Pecci, who allegedly put their thumb on the passport replacing Gardel.
The fact, that may be true or not, contains some "errors" apparent contradictions.
The author of the note; Juan Carlos Orofino, the last published 4 passport photographs Gardel, calls it "Trout", among other things, thanks to "anonymous collaborators" and said:
"1) - We believe that publishing this document Full is a curiosity of high interest for fans of Gardel.
2) - The picture of thrush is "cut" and out of frame . proof of "truchaje."
3) - In the photo number three (Passport 3) fingerprint appears Juan Pecci replacing the Gardel, another "irregularity" features almost humorous.
4) - To complete the "truchaje" in photo number two (Passport 2) the source is stated "Uruguayan" Gardel. "
Left Photo JCOrofino published. Right: Photograph published in: http://www.leopoldobarrionuevo.com/QUINTAEDICION/DondeNacistesCarlitos/tabid/263/Default.aspx
As can be seen in the first foul the seal of the consulate is going on photography and changing the position of the box. In both pictures, the signature of the consul who is on the photo matches the one on the bottom of the page.
Comparing both pictures, plus the published by Ms. Koser, claims Mr. Orofino I deserve the following considerations:
1) - The complete document appears not , played only 4 pages. The "texture" of the pictures 1 and 2 is different from the pictures 3 and 4, which suggests that even always the same document were copied or photographed in different locations.
2) - The passport page where Gardel is the picture of publishing Orofino, not match other existing passport photographs scorch Carlos Gardel, lack the seal of the Consulate and has exaggerated the "out of box."
3) - I can not prove that the fingerprint that appears not Pecci was to, because that only an expert can determine who has access to the original document, but it is unimaginable that Gardel has been so irresponsible as to get back out of Argentina with a false passport. Indeed, he could replace it with a new law. However, the November 2, 1933, RENEW THE SAME PASSPORT that obtained in Nice, (running the risk of being back on tour with a document that "say" that was "adulterated"), knowing that would flow into countries where laws severely punishing such fraud.
Orofino, despite stating that "fingerprint experts of the police investigation of the Province of Buenos Aires" confirmed that "there are two different tracks. As for the avoidance of doubt the "truchaje" fails to mention the names of the experts allegedly made such a finding. It is expected that they have made the original documents and not to the photos they post.
4) - Contained in document Gardel Uruguayan origin, because that was the nationality the singer confessed and signed in the handwriting alive at the time of application the only legal document that was, to which signed contracts, buy property, bank accounts and had traveled. Would have been too risky to perform many diverse activities under a pseudonym o una identidad falsa. La legalidad de este documento ha sido confirmada por profesionales idóneos uruguayos como los doctores Payssé González, Carlos Arezo, y el escribano Freddy Gonzalez Araujo. No se conocen en cambio los títulos que acreditan sus descalificadores.
Todo lo dicho anteriormente conforma el extraño razonamiento francesista y evidencia que, a la hora de adjudicarle a Gardel la nacionalidad francesa, considera válido todo tipo de testimonio o irregularidad documental, a la vez que considera “trucho” todo documento o testimonio que sugiera su orientalidad.
He visto oponer los más ardientes argumentos a la validez del testimonio irrefutable que muestra a Gardel photographed doing her schooling in a school Montevideo, arguing that a photograph identified with the accuracy of fingerprinting or school fees, but is that all these considerations are aside, if the French shore question , and seems believable, natural and even humorous, that Gardel has traveled for 3 years with a passport that had the fingerprints of another person without that catches their attention that this document will serve as identification for his photography just . Identification deemed valid enough to allow it to pass all controls customs without difficulty - even if false fingerprint -.
I think should be mentioned that the photographs of the documents of the time they overlapped the seal of the division that they issued, they did a "crushed" with the number of the document were signed over by the official of time.
If a photo already used in a previous paper we cut him the seal of "crushed" and the signature overlay, there is little salvageable.
Among the photographs published by Ms Koser, we see in the picture 10, the passport of Nice, specified as follows: Passport: No. 383,017, awarded by Federal Police , Buenos Aires , Date: November 25, 1930. (The passports were valid for two years, then was the 1930 Gardel's passport had expired in Nice).
the end of the published page passport No. 383017 , whose renewal date: November 25, 1930 , after the passport requested in Nice. Below the number says "portrait and badge number must be the same" . (Emphasis in red). see the "crushed" photo to the right of it. The picture is not sharp enough to see the overlay of the official signing, but is the photo that says it "took off" the old passport to attach to the back.
Based on the above I am inclined to think that the passport had Gardel in his clothes at the time of the accident was legal and not "trout."

A by Mr. Angel Yonadi, Forum Club de Tango, opposes an interesting testimony Batistella Mario, die by the episode Pecci Ventimiglia:
Mario Battistella, the renowned composer who successfully perform many tunes with Gardel, the story makes us a laughing joke that Carlos did to some friends. "The singer had come to Ventimiglia (Italian border) to take the train that would take him to France, when four people came to him on behalf of the law give warrant-Why? - Protested Gardel-" Me. ..? Since the explanations do not convince the "police" is invited to attend the sectional. Gardel, resigned goes where it suggestion indicated Juan Pecci, Argentine musician who was working in those places, who to calm him said: "Do not worry, Carlos, I know the commissioner and then you settle the matter. Meanwhile, wait with them at the cafe where I am acting to right back. "Returned a few minutes Pecci happy to explain that" it was all a misunderstanding "and everything returns to normal after the police apologize to Carlos for the mistake .- "Yes," says the singer-but that prevented me to make me miss the train, "protested Charles - To ease the inconvenience and wait out the next train, the standard order of business Pecci and the police served cognac. Carlos drank believe that celebrating the misunderstanding and improvised the bandoneon Pecci Carlos sang some tangos a low voice, passing a most enjoyable time together. When I went to say goodbye to the station and once Gardel was already sitting in his seat, Pecci and told police: "Hey, Carlos, we have to confess one thing. What the " police "was a " Macanaz " to keep you a few moments with us, right brother!" and released a loud laugh. " Now Magazine
** June 22, 1954 ** No. 2192
magazine "Now" played a note published earlier by the magazine Radiolandia the June 11, 1949 in which Batistella afirmaba que lo de Ventimiglia fue un "macanazo" para retener a Carlos un momento con ellos.
En la revista Tanguera del 24 de Junio de 1963, aparece reproducida la misma fotografía que publica Orofino donde se ve a Gardel con Pecci, pero en ésta se ve que Batistella estaba también allí. Hay un error en la fecha porque no pudo haber sido 1936.
También Avlis en su libro: "Carlos Gardel, Alegato por la verdad", pág. 19, reproduce el testimonio de Batistella con algunas variantes, sin especificar la revista:
"Lo que verdaderamente ocurrió en el pintoresco suceso está relatado por one of the stars of the same, who lived those moments when traveling with Carlos Gardel and then the story in a series of notes of a popular magazine in Argentina. Is the author and screenwriter Mario Batistella, now disappeared.
said then (1932) were being detained on suspicion of espionage travelers Czechoslovak.
This is the story of Batistella:
"We came to Milan to Gardel Ventimiglia, Italian border with France, and we arrested four individuals who gave us the warrant.
knew that at that time many Czechoslovaks were arrested on charges of espionage. Charlie said: "Che old, these bullrings Czechs believe that we are."
"Cops" had exhibited the medals that we do not look nervous at all.
"As we walked with them towards the police station, approached Juan Pecci, Argentine bandoneon player hired by the American Bar, Ventimiglia, Gardel knew many years ago.
"Wait, brother, that I fix this - he said - and spoke with" police "to speak out then:
- Ready chicken. Give me the passport and I go to the police station. You, to make time, go to the American Bar And wait.
- but we will miss the boat! argued Gardel.
- No matter - said Pecci - have one each quarter time. Within 15 minutes
Pecci was telling us that everything was fixed. But we lost the train.
- Who cares?; Within three hours with the other, said now ...
And we went to the American Bar. Pecci started playing the bandoneon and Carlitos to sing. Then we went to the station. When you start the convoy, we hear this dialogue between Gardel and Pecci:
Gardel - Thanks bro, for saving me from the police! Without you we were in "naca" ("cana" backwards) by Czechoslovaks.
Pecci: - Forgive me, old man, but the police was an invention of mine. Have you wanted an afternoon with us.
train noise suppressed the answer to Gardel. "

Part 2
What silences page Gardel Web
There is much more, has been omitted to mention in its note:
The report, with photo Pecci is on pages 588 to 591 of Volume II of "The Tango, a century of history" of the Buenos Editorial Perfil SA Aires, published in April 1992:
"El Pibe Ernesto TAUGHT ME TO PLAY THE VIOLIN" counts as Pecci started with tango and other details, also played for many years with Bianco's orchestra, which competed with that of Pizarro. After that the name of the star, the dialogue goes like this:
"- You know him from Gardel Buenos Aires?
" Curiously not. I met him in Paris, where he was acting ... Then I met again in Nice but in very different circumstances. I was spending my vacation. The detainee was there because her passport expired. Then they called me because I was told Argentina had an arrest. When I saw surprised me. I asked him what was wrong and he replied: "You know
these longis not let me pass?
He asked me to renew the passport and to leave a message to Madame Wakefield who lived in Villa Cimiez. I went to the consulate where the consul Olazabal handed me a new passport to Gardel (which I had to put my fingerprints) and then I went to the house of Madame Wakefield to advise you that Carlos was arrested. ERA 1931. AND HE WAS MET BY FORTY NINE YEARS AS AT THE VILLA cimiez expected with a GREAT RECEPTION FOR YOUR SITUATION WANTED TO ADVISE. FORTUNE FOR ALL soon be clarified. "
The episode, according to the date it bears the passport should have happened in 1932. Pecci
speech that Mrs. Wakefield also expecting a large reception to celebrate its 49 years, which would Gardel met two days earlier, which would place his birth in 1883.
Interestingly, a year later, Gardel returned to celebrate his 49 years in Paris, accompanied by Manuel Sofovich, Armando Define, Horacio Pettorossi, Alberto Castellanos, Alfredo Le Pera, two friends of Mme Wakefield marriages and her companion. It is clear that the singer had difficulty accepting the turn of the decade and confess that meet "half wheel" or 50 Pirules. Manuel
Sofovich, critic and journalist, intimate Gardel's birthday present it in Paris in December 1933, reported three times in his diary News Charts (September 9 / 53, March 24 and 25/60) the same story, but with variant style. Stipulate that, at some point, Gardel said "Boy, do you realize what 49 years meet?". And so there is no doubt a typographical error, pointing to the final with a celebrated Napoleon cognac "juveniles 49 years of Gardel."
Sofovich believed to Gardel born Toulouse, and arrived in Buenos Aires still an infant, with Berta Gardes, but realizes that being French , Gardel would have died at age 44, two years after it celebrated its 49 years.
Confused saying that Gardel went to Toulouse after the meeting at the Cafe de Paris. Gardel had traveled to Toulouse BEFORE, at a date closer to his birthday.
http://www.geomundos.com/cultura/gardeloriental/manuel-sofovich---gardel-cumplio-49-anos-en-1933_doc_11616.html
Sofovich Manuel's presence at the birthday and the subsequent reaffirmation the age of the singer made in three publications, is omitted in the entries for that meeting made by Armando Define, Simon Collier, Miguel Angel Moreno, Guadalupe Aballe and probably other French supporters of Gardel.
We can not determine if Pecci who lack the truth or whether it was a misunderstanding of journalism.
Sardinia Pedro's friend points out to us that, another episode occurred a few days earlier, also narrated by people who believed in the French Gardel, juicy offer data for analysis.
Simon Collier, in his book, pg. 187, says:
"Gardel Defino wanted his friend to meet his French family. They traveled by train to Toulouse, where they stayed in the hotel from the station to not disturb the family Gardes. Once in the house, Jean Gardes Pernod served them ...(...)
... Back in Paris, Gardel wanted to say goodbye to his old friend Manuel Pizzarro, who had just opened another nightclub (where he worked until war temporarily removed him from Paris) that was called Chez Pizzarro with some logic. Mrs Wakefield, meanwhile, offered the singer a sumptuous farewell dinner in a private room of the Cafe de Paris. Several friends of the lady were there along with a group of Argentine ... "
Bricheteau Christianne, in his book: " Carlos Gardel / FAMILY TOLOSAN, "another witness referred the same episode:
"Mrs. Jane Ceyte-niece of Cassagne, former tenants and friends of the family-Gardes, currently has 81 years of age and remember:
" My aunt, Mrs. Cassagne, was invited to a dinner in honor of the singer and his manager. (1932) I was 12 years old and I went along. I was dazzled by the beauty of white leggings were Carlos and I define. Gardel was very elegant! Charlotte
Gardes and her husband talked about him with great respect and call him Lord Gardes. "
amazing thing of this report is that at no time neither defined nor Ceyte Mrs mention that "Mr. Gardes "has celebrated his birthday in Toulouse , his family alleged Toulouse, exploiting the fact of being right at his supposed birthplace, with his alleged biological family on the anniversary of his birthday.
A unique opportunity evidence that nobody thought to mention Gardel's birthday there, for the simple reason that the singer was not absent or late Charles Romuald Gardes.
Can anyone find some justification to the fact that Gardel, on numerous occasions, has celebrated his birthday with his friends and has avoided celebrate with his supposed mother and Toulouse family at a time and place suitable to do ?
this attitude is justified only in the case of the undocumented Gardel was actually born in Tacuarembó around 1883, he used the identity of the French to get by in society until they could purchase their own.
neither lying, cheating, or opportunistic or "live" only a man of integrity whose discretion and respect for the family of his biological mother, prevented him from revealing the truth of their origin, but somehow needed to solve the problem of the undocumented.
