Mr. Oswald.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

In spending time with him, did you take him around, or accompany him, visiting various places in New York City?

Mr. Oswald.

He took me around, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

Did you have occasion during that period to take any photographs, snapshots, of Lee?

Mr. Oswald.

I certainly can identify the one appearing in Life--yes, sir; I did.

Mr. Jenner.

Just hold your answers right in this area exactly to my questions.

Mr. Oswald.

I'm sorry.

Mr. Jenner.

Were these taken with your camera, or was it a camera that your mother or brother owned or had?

Mr. Oswald.

This was my camera.

Mr. Dulles.

What do these questions refer to? Do they refer to the pictures in Life?

Mr. Jenner.

Well, I really did not want to refer to that at the moment.
Do you remember any of the places at which you took snapshots of Lee during this 10-day leave?

Mr. Oswald.

The Bronx Zoo I believe was about the only time I can recall taking any pictures of him.

Mr. Jenner.

I am at liberty to advise you, Mr. Oswald, that when your mother testified before the Commission she did produce a number of photographs, snapshots, and otherwise, among which was a snapshot of your brother, Lee, taken at the New York Zoo--that she testified was taken at the New York Zoo.
Is that the incident in which you took the photograph of your brother Lee, as far as you know?

Mr. Oswald.

You say the New York Zoo, sir. As far as I know there is just one zoo up there referred to as the Bronx Zoo. I do recall, and I still have the picture that I took of Lee at the Bronx Zoo. I certainly feel that perhaps either I sent copies of it to mother, or to Lee after I had the film developed.

Mr. Jenner.

Mr. Chairman, may I go off the record a moment?
(Discussion off the record.)

Mr. Dulles.

Back on the record.

Mr. Jenner.

For the purpose of the record, I have before me the February 21, 1964, issue of Life magazine, on pp. 68--A, 68--B, and 70 of which there appear a number of photographs. I think it would be well if we gave this spread page an exhibit number. And since it really consists of two separate pages--the next exhibit numbers are what?

Mr. Liebeler.

281 and 282.

Mr. Jenner.

We will mark 68-B as 281 and page 69 as 282.
(The material referred to was marked Commission Exhibits Nos. 281 and 282, respectively, for identification.)

Mr. Mckenzie.

Mr. Jenner--the only thing you are offering to the Commission at this time as I understand it are the pictures that appeal on those two pages and not the text.

Mr. Jenner.

That's correct, sir.
Directing your attention to page 69, identified as Commission Exhibit 282, there is a picture of a young boy and the background looks like it might be taken in a zoo. You mentioned that you had taken a snapshot of your brother on this 10-day leave.
Could you examine that and see if you can identify that as being the snapshot you took?

Mr. Oswald.

Yes, sir, I do so identify that picture. That was taken at the Bronx Zoo--a picture of Lee Harvey Oswald, takes during my 10-day leave in New York City in 1953, approximately July or August of 1953.

Mr. Jenner.

Was school in session at that time?

Mr. Oswald.

No, sir, school was not in session at that time. This was during the summer months.

Mr. Jenner.

So there was no obligation on the part of your brother to have been in school at this particular time?

Mr. Oswald.

That's correct, sir.
