Kennedy-Related Photos


Recommended Posts

I've been collecting photographs for my "Dealey Plaza Through The Years" webpage (linked below) for nearly ten years now. I'm always looking for more though (especially any pre-1963 photos). So if anyone has any more rare images they'd like to share, please post them in this thread. ....

The 2 buildings behind the DalTex have an excellent line of sight

The Dal-Tex building has a perfect view all the way down to the triple underpass.  I have an image taken from the TUP area, but haven't been able to upload it yet.  I will try again later.

If this is supposed to buttress the "magic bullet" fact, as depicted in the Warren Omission, it does the opposite.  Note the location of the bullet mark on JFK's back as both he and Gov. Connally react.  Now realize that this is AFTER the fact.  Kennedy was sitting calmly waving prior to the shot, therefore the "bunching" and upward movement of the mark/bullet would NOT have been present.  Now you would see that the mark/bullet would be inches lower.  You cannot have Kennedy in this position until AFTER he was hit and began reacting to the wound.

That's not correct, Richard. There are several photos of JFK in the Dallas motorcade PRIOR to the shooting which depict Kennedy's suit coat bunched up, including the Robert Croft photo (below), which was taken just seconds prior to the first bullet striking JFK:

Here's another picture showing Kennedy's hiked-up suit jacket. This was taken by a bystander named Andre Leche on Main Street, just a few blocks east of Dealey Plaza:

As mentioned before, the car used in CE309 & this pic is the SS Cadillac, nothing at all like the Lincoln limo. No reliable measurements of ANYTHING could be gotten from this comparison.

From September 28, 1964....

These four Des Moines Tribune newspaper pages contain a very good general summary of the events surrounding President Kennedy's assassination and the murders of J.D. Tippit and Lee Harvey Oswald.
