Nota curatorial:

This study was prompted by rumors that a second gunman could be seen on the grassy knoll in some frames of the Orville Nix film. The indistinct image resembled someone firing a rifle at President Kennedy at the moment of the fatal shot to his head. United Press International (UPI), a major US news organizationon, commissioned an analysis of the Nix film by the Itek Corporation, a Massachusetts company that developed photo enhancement techniques under government contract for unrelated military and intelligence purposes.After taking careful measurements of all relevant physical objects in the "gunman" area, and applying enhancement techniques to frames of the original Nix film, Itek concluded the shape was nothing more than shadows of some trees falling on a side of the concrete pergola behind amateur photographer Abraham Zapruder. The Itek study is an excellent record of some physical aspects of Dealey Plaza at the time. - Gary Mack, Curator
