Image 6 from Negative Strip 38: Dallas Police Department of Lee Harvey Oswald talking to a large room of reporters
Original 35mm black and white negative taken by an unidentified Dallas Times Herald staff photographer. The image shows Lee Harvey Oswald during the midnight press conference at the Dallas Police Department headquarters. The negative is on Kodak Tri-X Pan Film. This image is labeled #6 on section 1 of negative strip 38.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 it is not possible to say at this time who took the photos, although we did note that the photographer for negative strip 37 is NOT the same as the photographer who took the pictures on negative strip 38. There is a possibility that Darryl Heikes took the photos on strip 38 but this cannot be verified at this time. (Lindsey Richardson, 8/22/13)Oswald during midnight press conference
