Slide #60 of a Robert Kennedy store front memorial in Chicago, Illinois dated June 1968

One 35mm color image on Ektachrome Transparency slide of a Robert Kennedy memorial set up in a store front window in Chicago, dated June 1968. The memorial consists of an American flag, a picture of Robert Kennedy on an easel, and a plant in a white urn. George Reid's reflection is seen in the window to the right of the memorial, while he is taking the picture. This slide is in a cardboard mount, and handwritten on the slide in black ink is the number "(60" in the bottom right corner. Above the image handwritten in blue ink is "BOBBY KENNEDY," and in red ink "A (CHI)." Below the image in blue ink is "STORE FRONT." Underneath this printed in yellow text is, "MADE IN U.S.A. U.S. PAT. NO. 3.013.354.” To the left of the image in stamped text is "JUN 68D." On the emulsion side of the slide at the bottom left corner is the "Kodak" label and "PROCESSED BY" in blue printed text. Opposite is "Ektachrome Transparency." 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.
