Color slide #90 of a framed memorial to President Kennedy and his children

One 35mm color image on Ektachrome Transparency slide of a memorial to President Kennedy and his children, with a drawing, a letter ("Dear Caroline' I'm sorry your Daddy has died. I have a very nice Daddy that I will share with you and your brother. I am your friend. Lisa Downes"), and a quote ("John F. Kennedy…in his thousand days in office…remarkably quickened the conscience and altered the sensibility of the entire world…. Arthur Schlesinger, 1000 Days"). This slide is in a cardboard mount, and handwritten on the slide in black ink is the number "90" in the bottom right corner. Above the image handwritten in black ink is " PIX/KENNEDY" and "A.” To the left of the image printed in yellow text is, "MADE IN U.S.A. U.S. PAT. NO. 3.013.354.” Beside this in red print text is "3 / SEP 66D3." 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.
