Description

Five original vintage glossy photos of Lee Harvey Oswald's family taken in the year after the Kennedy assassination, 8 x 10 and 10 x 8, all date-stamped 1964 on the reverse. Includes: two photos of his widow Marina with both of her daughters, Rachel and June; two photos of June Lee Oswald playing with Band-Aids and a kitten; and one photo of their home in Richardson, Texas, which "Mrs. Oswald purchased…with money she received from sympathetic people after her husband, Lee Harvey Oswald, assassinated President John F. Kennedy on Nov. 22, 1963." The four family photos have Tom C. Dillard/Dallas Morning News credit stamps on the reverse; the image of the house is stamped by UPI. In overall fine condition. Dillard was chief photographer for the Dallas Morning News and was riding in a press car in the Dallas motorcade on November 22, 1963; he captured a famous photograph showing the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository within seconds of the shooting.
