The lighting suggests this picture was taken while the curb section was still in place on August 5, 1964. It seems to show that a substance was used to fill in the mark on the curb, which is an observation made by assassination researcher Harold Weisberg in the 1970s upon examining the curb at the National Archives. - Gary Mack, Curator
