Description

Two items: an autograph statement signed "Robert N. McClelland, M.D.," on a white 8.5 x 11 sheet with typed question asking his opinion of the Warren Commission and the magic bullet theory, with McClelland's response as follows: "I think the first bullet entered high on his back and the second bullet came from the front and made a large exit wound in the right side of the back of his head. This is what I saw from a distance of about 18 inches above the President's head. This is not consistent with the Warren report"; and an original felt tip sketch of President Kennedy’s head wounds on a white 8.5 x 11 sheet with typed question asking if he can explain the wound to the back of Kennedy’s head, with McClelland drawing the head in profile and noting damage to both sides: “Probable? Small frontal entry wound at the hairline (I did not see such a small wound on his very bloody head however),” “Small probable exit wound low in the neck,” “Massive exit wound on the right,” and “Small entrance wound high in the back.” Signed at the bottom by McClelland. In overall fine condition.
