Though I'm curious about the horrible industrial accident that Pigman was involved in, I think a lot of it is just bad lighting. That sun glaring through the window is going to make a tough time of it for any camera, let alone 70 years ago. It wasn't unusual to go back and "enhance" photos with a brush (hence the phrase "air brushing"), so I'm going to guess that someone tried to fix a bad lighting choice post-production.
