Photograph of Elm Street and the triple underpass
Black and white photographic print looking down the north side of Elm Street toward the triple underpass. The photo was taken in November 1963 by the Federal Bureau of Investigation as evidence in the days following the assassination of President Kennedy. The photograph shows cars on Elm Street driving toward the triple underpass on the left side of the image. On the right side of the photograph is the roped-off sidewalk and grassy knoll with crowds of people gathered. Part of the pergola on the north side of Dealey Plaza is visible at the far right of the photo.

This FBI photographic print was in the personal collection of retired agent Nat A. Pinkston (1915-2011). Pinkston was a Dallas attorney prior to joining the Federal Bureau of Investigation. He retired from the Dallas FBI office in 1967 after twenty-eight years of service. Pinkston was involved in the local assassination investigation, notably tracing ownership of the Mannlicher-Carcano found in the Depository to employee Lee Harvey Oswald. He was also dispatched to the Texas School Book Depository on December 2, 1963, after Lee Harvey Oswald's clipboard was discovered in the northwest corner of the sixth floor near where the rifle had been found shortly after the assassination. -- Stephen Fagin, Curator
