"Rusty" Livingston, an employee of the Dallas Police crime lab, developed many of the images taken by officers investigating the assassination. This print is from a first-generation set of copies he kept for himself.The photograph was stored in a clear plastic sleeve with a small, white label which read, “Dallas Police Crime Lab photo showing some of the belongings of Oswald. Several photos were taken of many items laid out on the basement property-room floor before they were released to the FBI. In the center of the photo is the small Minox camera located on top of the open camera case. The chain on the side was used to judge the distance from the item to be photographed."
