Image 5 from Negative Strip 36: Dallas Police Department of a man speaking into a reporter's microphone
Original 35mm black and white negative taken by an unidentified Dallas Times Herald staff photographer. The image shows an unidentified Dallas Police detective with the materials for conducting the paraffin test at the Dallas Police Department on the evening of November 22, 1963. The negative is on Kodak Tri-X Pan Film. This image is labeled #5 on section 1 of negative strip 36.The old TMS record for the images on this negative strip did not identify a photographer. Based on research conducted by collections intern Mark Davies in June and July 2012, curatorial and collections staff concluded that Darryl Heikes and one other DTH photographer attended the midnight press conference. It is not possible to say at this time who took the photos. (Lindsey Richardson, 8/9/13)Police detective with materials for paraffin test at the Dallas Police Department on Friday night
