United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. STUDEBAKER. Well, this shows as much as you can before anything was
moved, and at that time, we went over to this other place----
Mr. BALL. Did you take this picture?
Mr. STUDEBAKER. Yes, sir; that was after the boxes were dusted.
Mr. BALL. That's after they were moved?
Mr. STUDEBAKER. Yes, sir; that's when we was trying to get some prints
right there.
Mr. BALL. Do you have any pictures of the boxes before they were moved
other than those you have showed me?
Mr. STUDEBAKER. Just these two.
Mr. BALL. Just the two that show the cartons, and those are Exhibits A
and B?
Mr. STUDEBAKER. We have probably got one down there I can get you that
is a lot better print than that. If you want a better print, I can get
it for you.
Mr. BALL. Then, you don't have any pictures taken of the boxes before
they were moved?
Mr. STUDEBAKER. No.
Mr. BALL. Now, I will show you another picture which we will mark as
"Exhibit D," was that taken by you?
Mr. STUDEBAKER. Yes.
(Instrument marked by the reporter as "Studebaker Exhibit D," for
identification.)
Mr. BALL. Does that show the position of the boxes before or after they
were moved?
Mr. STUDEBAKER. That's after they were dusted--there's fingerprint dust
on every box.
Mr. BALL. And they were not in that position then when you first saw
them?
Mr. STUDEBAKER. No.
Mr. BALL. Now, take a look at it and tell me where were they with
reference to the left window sill, were there boxes over close to the
left window sill or in the center, or close to the right of the window
sill?
Mr. STUDEBAKER. Where is your other picture--and I will show you? See
this box right here--this box?
Mr. BALL. We are referring now to the box shown in Exhibit B.
Mr. STUDEBAKER. That's one of these Rolling Readers there in Exhibit B,
you can read it right here--it's upside down. It says, "Second Rolling
Readers."
Mr. BALL. That says 10.
Mr. STUDEBAKER. No; it says Second; that's that little Rolling
Reader--it says "Second Rolling Readers". They don't go by this up
there, they go by this right here, this little print. Now, this box
was turned over on its side and you see the tape right here, the way it
is wrapped around--that was laying in the window like this on the top
box.
Mr. BALL. "In the window like this," you mean as shown on Exhibit B?
Mr. STUDEBAKER. It is Exhibit B.
Mr. BALL. It was on the window ledge?
Mr. STUDEBAKER. It was on the window ledge, just like it is right
there, and then this other box was beside it, and this box was turned
up on end.
Mr. BALL. You say "this box turned up on end," you've got to give us a
description of "this box"--you mean the box marked "books"?
Mr. STUDEBAKER. The box marked "books"--now, we have--this thing is
stapled here some place along this edge and you can see the staples in
this other print. You can't see it in this print.
Mr. BALL. What other print?
