Kai, I believe you are referring to the fact that Uncle Joe's arms were of very different lengths. This is a feature he was very self conscious about, so photos like the one you supplied with both arms almost fully visible are rare. In most of his photos one hand is in a pocket, or one arm is bent and somewhat hidden.
