I haven't seen that mugshot before
He looks almost like someone affected by gigantism. If I had to say something I would go with CM + Med and leave it at that.

But according to Coon, atlanto-med would be like a med with a Combe-Capelle( mesolithic European)-like influence, so paleoeuropid traits would not necessarly make him less atlanto-med. He resembles the Combe-Capelle skulls regarding his very long face, dolichocephaly, long vault, similar minimum frontal, similar broad nose and long jaw. And he also shows med traits, of course. So, jaw/chin morphology, cheekbones are more med, vault is also not as long. His ears look attached and located high on the skull though, It is another indication of paleoeuropid influence. So i think he is a very good example of atlanto-med. This is the combe-campelle skull, you can see that It look pseudo-acromegalic as well, because of very long face and robusticity: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/93/Homo_sapiens_Combe_Capelle.jpg/486px-Homo_sapiens_Combe_Capelle.jpg

He highly likely had Acromegaly, one of the most common growth disorders.
