Warren Commission Hearings: Vol. I - Page 118« Previous | Next »

(Testimony of Mrs. Lee Harvey Oswald Resumed)

Mrs. Oswald.
Yes.
Mr. Rankin.
We offer in evidence Exhibit 133.
The Chairman.
It may be admitted.
(The documents referred to were marked Commission Exhibit No. 133, and received in evidence.)
Mr. Rankin.
Do you recall whether these pictures in Exhibit 133 were taken before or after the Walker incident?
Mrs. Oswald.
Before.
Mr. Thorne.
Exhibit 134 is an enlargement of' one of these pictures--what purports to be an enlargement.
Mrs. Oswald.
Yes, this is an enlargement of that photograph.
Mr. Rankin.
Mrs. Oswald, in Exhibit 133, in one of the pictures your husband has a newspaper, it appears.
Mr. Dulles.
I think in both of them.
Mr. Rankin.
I want to correct that.
In both he appears to have a newspaper. In one of them he has the newspaper in the right hand and in the other in the left hand. Do you know what newspaper that is?
Mrs. Oswald.
It says there "Militant." But I don't know what kind of a paper that is--whether it is Communist, anti- Communist.
Mr. Rankin.
Do you recall how much earlier than the Walker incident you took these photographs?
Mrs. Oswald.
About two weeks.
Mr. Rankin.
Was the enlargement of one of those pictures, Exhibit 134, made by you, or by someone else?
Mrs. Oswald.
No, I don't know who made the enlargement.
Mr. Rankin.
Have you seen Exhibit 134, the enlargement, before this?
Mrs. Oswald.
No. I have been shown an enlargement, but I don't know whether this is the one I have been shown.
Mr. Rankin.
Who showed that to you?
Mrs. Oswald.
Apart from Mr. Gopadze, somebody else showed me an enlargement.
Mr. Rankin.
Does this appear to be like the enlargement that you saw?
Mrs. Oswald.
Yes. I think it was specially enlarged for the investigation.
Mr. Rankin.
I offer in evidence Exhibit No. 134.
The Chairman.
It may be admitted.
(The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 134, and received in evidence.)
Mr. Thorne.
Exhibit No. 136 purports to be a clipping from a newspaper. It is a clipping of an advertisement, a mail coupon.
Mrs. Oswald.
I don't know what that is.
Mr. Rankin.
Do you recognize the handwriting on it?
Mrs. Oswald.
Lee's handwriting.
Mr. Rankin.
I offer in evidence Exhibit 135.
The Chairman.
It will be admitted.
(The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 135, and received in evidence.)
Mr. Rankin.
I call the Commission's attention to the fact that this is the coupon under which it appears the rifle was ordered, showing an enclosed $10 notation--"Check for $29.95, A. G. Hidell, age 28, post office box 2915, Dallas, Texas"
And it is marked, "One quantity. Point 38 ST. W. 2 inch barrel, 29.95." and underlined is 29.95, and an arrow at that point.
Mr. Thorne.
Exhibit 136 is a camera contained within a leather case.
Mrs. Oswald.
This is a Russian camera.
Mr. Rankin.
Is that the camera you used to take the pictures you have referred to?
Mrs. Oswald.
I don't remember exactly whether it was an American camera or this.
Mr. Rankin.
But this was one of your cameras, or your husband's cameras?
Mrs. Oswald.
My husband's camera.
Mr. Rankin.
I offer in evidence Exhibit 136.
