Description:

Lee Harvey Oswald Arrest Press Photo, PSA Authenticated

United Press International (UPI) photo of Lee Hervey Oswald in handcuffs, November 22, 1963, Dallas, TX, Type III, 9.1" x 7.125". Transcript of wire transmission attached, with UPI backstamp on verso. Transmission reads in part: "24-year-old suspect in the slaying of President Kennedy, clenches his fist as he is brought into the police station in handcuffs…". Some creasing to photo and slightly bumped corners, overall fine condition. Accompanied by LOA from PSA verifying authenticity.

Oswald was arrested on the afternoon of November 22 inside a Texas Theater after an eyewitness took notice of his suspicious behavior. The police brought him to the station for the murder of Officer J.D. Tippit, who approached Oswald after identifying him as matching the description of the suspect in a police broadcast, where he was later charged with the assassination of the president.

This item comes with a Certificate from John Reznikoff, a premier authenticator for both major 3rd party authentication services, PSA and JSA (James Spence Authentications), as well as numerous auction houses.
