Color slide #63 of a photograph of three different headlines from separate issues of the Chicago Tribune

One 35mm color image on Ektachrome Transparency slide of three separate days of front page headlines over the Robert Kennedy assassination in the "Chicago Tribune." The top newspaper reads, "Kennedy's Body in N.Y.; Seek Woman in Killing." The middle newspaper reads, "SEN. KENNEDY DIES!" The third newspaper headline reads, "Kennedy 'Very Critical' Identify Suspect As Arab." This slide is in a cardboard mount, and handwritten on the slide in black ink is the number "(63" in the bottom right corner. Above the image handwritten in red ink is "A." To the left of the image printed in yellow text is, "MADE IN U.S.A. U.S. PAT. NO. 3.013.354.” Stamped over this is the date, "JUN 68D." To the right of this in black text is "9" and "68D." On the emulsion side of the slide to the left of the image is the "Kodak" label and "PROCESSED BY" in blue printed text. Opposite is "Ektachrome Transparency." George Reid was a longtime John F. Kennedy supporter who campaigned for him in Texas. He also filmed home-movie footage of President Kennedy at Love Field in Dallas, and in Dealey Plaza on several occasions in the 1960s.
