Unsigned handwritten list in pencil on the reverse of a pay stub from Jaggars-Chiles-Stovall, Inc., of Dallas, Texas, 10 x 3.25, issued for a 40-hour pay period ending March 27, 1963, resulting in a balance of $74.38. On the reverse, Oswald writes a resume-style list of all the companies that he worked for after returning to the United States from Moscow. In full: “Worked June-Oct. 1962, 210 N. E. Vacek St., Lou-R-Pack Company, Ft. Worth Texas / Oct-May 1963, Worked Dallas, Texas, This Company / S. S. 433-54 3937 / Last Addres / 702 Elsbeth St. / Dec 1962-May 1963.” An ink notation below reads, “Neely $65.00.” In 1963, Oswald lived at 214 West Neely in Dallas, his last Dallas address before moving to New Orleans in May; the Warren Report stated his monthly rent on Neely Street was $60. In fine condition, with three unobtrusive storage folds. Originates from a collection of family documents given by Marina Oswald to her personal attorney. The Warren Report suggests that Oswald printed his ‘Alek James Hidell’ identification cards while working at Jaggars-Chiles-Stovall, which he then used to mail order the rifle allegedly used to assassinate President Kennedy. An amazing piece of history that ties together a multitude of events in the Oswald story—his financial struggles, Dallas residency, pseudonym, and rifle.
