Abstract
We identify the Frechet mean shape with respect to the Riemannian metric of a class of probability measures on Bookstein's shape space of labelled triangles and show, in contrast to the case of Kendall's shape space, that the Frechet mean shape of the probability measure on Bookstein's shape space induced from independent normal distributions on vertices, having the same covariance matrix sigma(2)I(2), is not necessarily the shape of the means.
