Color slide #45 of the top of the Texas School Book Depository building and Hertz sign

One 35mm color image on a Color Transparency slide of the top of the Texas School Book Depository building with the Hertz sign. The sign shows that the outside temperature is 95 degrees. The west and south sides of the building can be seen in this image, including the lettering at the top on the west side. This slide is in a cardboard mount, and handwritten on the slide in black ink is the number "(45" in the bottom right corner. At the top of the image handwritten in blue ink is "DAL - AS." Below the image in black print text is "16 / SEP 64." On the emulsion side of the slide at the top in red print text is an image of an arrow and, "THIS SIDE TOWARD SCREEN." The opposite label reads, "COLOR 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.
