Ruby/Oswald Pulitzer Print & Documents
Original Pulitzer Prize winning print of Jack Ruby as he shot and killed Lee Harvey Oswald. Infamous image captured by Bob Jackson for The Dallas Times Herald from the estate of Herald editor, Felix McKnight. From a 2004 Dallas Morning News article, “…For Robert H. ‘Bob’ Jackson, then a 29-year-old photographer for the Dallas Times Herald, taking a picture of Oswald’s murder meant winning the Pulitzer Prize in 1964…Felix McKnight, co-publisher and editor of the Times Herald, says Mr. Jackson’s negative was overwhelming. ‘I had been a Pulitzer juror three times,’ says Mr. McKnight…He shouted to the troops: ‘We’ve got a winner here! We’re gonna win one!’…” Incredible original silver gelatin print directly from the estate of Felix McKnight measures approximately 26″ x 22″ matted. Photo is mounted onto matting. Accompanied by dozens of telegrams, letters and newspaper clippings, all owned by McKnight, related to JFK’s assassination and the Oswald murder. Also included is the original frame from McKnight. Excellent condition. Sold for $12,500.
The following are some additional items we sold:
Lee Harvey Oswald autograph letter signed ”Lee xxx”, used in the Warren Commission’s investigation as exhibit #312. Dated 20 December 1961, letter was sent from Minsk, Russia where Oswald had defected, and is addressed to the assassin’s mother, Mrs. Marguerite Oswald. Uncorrected for Oswald’s characteristic poor spelling, letter reads in full, ”Dear Mother Recieved today the thrid package of books and magazines in the last three weeks thanks a lot I really do apprieciate all of your help. I had better give you my new address they just changed the name of this street so the address is Ulisita Kommset Ulisita Kommunidstecheski House 4 Apt 24. We still don’t have any word about our vista [visa]. The American Embassy in Moscow wrote me a letter [photocopy of the letter, Warren Commission Exhibit No. 241, is included] and stated they think the Russians have to let us go. I shall keep you informed. That’s about all for now, Lee XXX P.S Marina sends her love and thanks for the sewing book.” The photocopy of the 14 December 1961 U.S. Embassy in Moscow letter included reads in part, ”…It is the Embassy’s view that, since you are not considered a Soviet citizen by the authorities in this country, you are entitled to receive a Soviet exit visa upon presentation of valid foreign national passport…It further appears to me that your right to an exit visa will not be affected by your acceptance of an extension of your present Soviet documentation, which is after all, prima facie evidence that you are not regarded here as a Soviet citizen…” Five days after this letter was written, Soviet authorities indeed granted exit visas to Oswald and his wife. From the collection of Dr. John K. Lattimer who was the first nongovernmental medical specialist to review evidence in Kennedy’s assassination. He pencils ”JKL 92 68” at the lower edge of the blank verso of the blank integral leaf. Measures 5.5” x 8” on one sheet of ruled paper. Fine. Sold for $12,500.
Lee Harvey Oswald signed application to Albert Schweitzer College — an application which he used as an elaborate ruse to enter Europe and then defect to the Soviet Union. A self-proclaimed Marxist, Oswald laid his plan for defection under the false pretense of enrolling at Albert Schweitzer College located in Switzerland. Once on the European continent, however, he bypassed Switzerland altogether, making his way to Finland and then onto the U.S.S.R. Application is dated 19 March 1959, with portions filled out by Oswald in his hand, including his full name, his age (20), other languages he spoke (Russian), and his exact address at the time. Signed ”Lee H. Oswald”. Document, measuring 8.25” x 4.5” on one page, has a chip to upper left and a hole at lower left, tape residue along split portions of document and minor creasing. Type and ink remain bold and very legible. Fascinating document providing insight into the man who would throw the nation into mourning less than four years later. Sold for $10,541.
