Color slide #02 of view of Dealey Plaza from the Texas School Book Depository

One 35mm color image on Kodachrome Duplicate slide of Elm Street and Dealey Plaza as photographed from the window on the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository from which Oswald fired. The view is from above Dealey Plaza, looking west down Elm Street. In the foreground are trees on the north side of the Plaza, and Elm St. Main and Commerce can be seen in the background, and vehicles are driving on all streets. The Triple Underpass is seen in the background towards the right. More of Dealey Plaza is in the middle of the image. This slide is in a cardboard mount, and handwritten on the slide in black ink is the number "(2" in the bottom right corner. At the top of the image is "Assassination Scene As Photographed From Window From Which Oswald Fired." At the bottom of the slide in red printed text is the copyright symbol and "Reproduction ONLY by written consent of G. C. REID, P.O. Box 15620, Dallas, Texas 75215." Printed in yellow text below this, "MADE IN U.S.A. U.S. PAT. NO. 3.013.354.” On the emulsion side of the slide at the top in the left corner is the "Kodak" label and "MADE BY" in black printed text. Opposite is "Kodachrome Duplicate." George Reid was a longtime John F. Kennedy supporter who campaigned for him in Texas. He also filmed home-movie footage of President Kennedy at Love Field in Dallas, and in Dealey Plaza on several occasions in the 1960s.
