Color slide #72 of a motorcycle police officer surrounded by a crowd where Elm Street and Houston Street intersect

One 35mm color image on Ektachrome Transparency slide of a Dallas Police officer on a three-wheel motorcycle, surrounded by a crowd of people at the corner of Elm Street and Houston Street. The police officer is sitting on the motorcycle with his body facing the crowd, while the crowd is leaning in towards him. This slide is in a cardboard mount, and handwritten on the slide in black ink is the number "(72" in the bottom right corner. Above the image handwritten in black ink is "A." Underneath the image printed in yellow text is, "MADE IN U.S.A. U.S. PAT. NO. 3.013.354.” Above this in red print is "SEP 67D4" and "10." On the emulsion side of the slide at the bottom left corner 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.
