Mr. Dulles.

Will you show those to the witness and see if he identifies his own writing?

Mr. Mandella.

Yes; I have made these notations. Yes; I do recognize these.

Mr. Eisenberg.

The next one says "Box B" and "Negative---same as box 'D' No. 7."

Mr. Mandella.

Yes.

Mr. Eisenberg.

You have seen these as you flipped through to identify that these are the same photographs?

Mr. Mandella.

Yes.

Mr. Eisenberg.

Let the record show that these photographs are photographs of latent prints taken by or under the supervision of Mr. Sebastian Latona, and he has Just testified that these photographs were taken of objects which were

identified earlier in Commission proceedings. Mr. Latona transmitted these photographs to me directly, and I in turn transmitted them to Mr. Mandella and Mr. Mooney, who is also present in this hearing room.
Mr. Mandella, do you know what total number of identifiable latent prints were contained in these exhibits that you just identified---exclusive of 657, which contained the inked or known finger and palm prints?

Mr. Mandella.

No; but I have this outline here.

Mr. Eisenberg.

Just approximately would you say how many identifiable prints there were?

Mr. Mandella.

Thirty.

Mr. Eisenberg.

Some 30 odd prints?

Mr. Mandella.

Some 30.

Mr. Eisenberg.

And did you identify certain of those prints as being the finger or palm prints of Lee Harvey Oswald?

Mr. Mandella.

Yes; I did.

Mr. Eisenberg.

Could you tell us which of those prints you so identified?

Mr. Mandella.

There was a photograph, a photograph of the underside of the gun barrel, Commission Exhibit No.----

Mr. Eisenberg.

That is Commission Exhibit No, 658, and I will hand you that photograph now. You are referring to this photograph?

Mr. Mandella.

Yes.

Mr. Eisenberg.

And can you read the writing on the back of that?

Mr. Mandella.

"Right palm Oswald underside gun barrel."

Mr. Eisenberg.

Is that in your handwriting?

Mr. Mandella.

Yes; it is in my handwriting.

Mr. Eisenberg.

Did you determine what portion of the fight palm that was, Mr. Mandella?

Mr. Mandella.

Yes; it is the right side of the right palm, this area right here.

Mr. Eisenberg.

That is the ulnar portion?

Mr. Mandella.

Pardon?

Mr. Eisenberg.

Is that sometimes called the ulnar portion?

Mr. Mandella.

Yes; the ulnar side, or the small-bone side; yes.

Mr. Eisenberg.

Did you make any other identifications?

Mr. Mandella.

Yes; I did.

Mr. Eisenberg.

Could you give the next one, please?

Mr. Mandella.

The photo marked "brown bag wrapping paper" Exhibit No.----

Mr. Eisenberg.

That is Exhibit 659, and that exhibit contains two photographs you, which are marked 659-A and 659-- B?

Mr. Mandella.

Yes.

Mr. Eisenberg.

And did you identify the prints in those photographs?

Mr. Mandella.

Yes; on photograph No. 1----

Mr. Eisenberg.

Could you refer to the print on the back, 659-A or B?

Mr. Mandella.

On 659-B, as I called it, photo 1, is the No. 7 finger which left index finger of Lee Harvey Oswald.

Mr. Eisenberg.

And do you have a note on the back of that picture?

Mr. Mandella.

Yes; I do.

Mr. Eisenberg.

Can you read us that?

Mr. Mandella.

"Left index, Oswald brown bag wrapping paper."

Mr. Eisenberg.

And that is in your handwriting?
