(Testimony of Robert Alan Surrey)

Mr. Jenner.
time prior to April 10, 1963, were you familiar with the person who is shown on Garner Exhibit No. 1?
Mr. Surrey.
No.
Mr. Jenner.
When I say familiar, I mean did you know of or had you seen consciously a person with that physiognomy and physical appearance?
Mr. Surrey.
No; I have not.
Mr. Jenner.
That is a side view.
I show you Commission Exhibit No. 520. The man in the center--had you prior to April 10, 1963, ever seen a man with that physiognomy, facial showing, and body?
Mr. Surrey.
No.
Mr. Jenner.
All right, sir. I take it, then--I ask you this question. Neither of the two men that you saw in that automobile on the 8th of April 1963, at least to your present recollection, was the man shown on Garner Exhibit No. 1, and Commission Exhibit No. 520?
Mr. Surrey.
I don't believe either of them was.
Mr. Jenner.
All right.
The Chairman.
May I ask--is this what you spoke of as the book?
Mr. Surrey.
Yes, sir.
The Chairman.
I notice on here that there is no price of any kind. You say you sold this for $5?
Mr. Surrey.
That was an after thought. The original intent was not a sale.
The Chairman.
Was it ever advertised to the public as for sale from $5?
Mr. Surrey.
Yes.
The Chairman.
Where was it advertised?
Mr. Surrey.
In just a flier that we included with some materials we were mailing out.
The Chairman.
I see. I would like to ask you if you were present when--at the time that they had--that there was the demonstration against Ambassador Adlai Stevenson?
Mr. Surrey.
No; I was not.
The Chairman.
Did you have anything to do with that demonstration?
Mr. Surrey.
No, sir.
The Chairman.
Were you present when the demonstration was against then Vice President Johnson in Dallas?
Mr. Surrey.
No, sir.
The Chairman.
Did you have anything to do with that?
Mr. Surrey.
No, sir.
Mr. Jenner.
Mr. Chief Justice, we have marked the book as Commission Exhibit No. 1015.
(The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 1015 for identification.)
Mr. Jenner.
Would you please examine it? You need no more than just to look at it, so you will be able to testify that that is a true and correct copy of the book you have testified about, published by Eagle Publishing Co., which contains on its reverse cover side the letter to which you made reference.
Mr. Surrey.
Yes, sir; it is.
The Chairman.
What did it cost you to publish that?
Mr. Surrey.
It came to $2.50 and some cents. In a limited quantity--3,000.
The Chairman.
Do you now propose to offer all of the exhibits?
Mr. Jenner.
Yes; I have three more FBI photos, and then I will have completed.
The Chairman.
Very well.
Mr. Jenner.
Mr. Surrey, I show you three more photographs which are identified first as Commission Exhibit No. 997. Would you read the material that appears on the reverse side of that first, please?
(The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 997 for identification.)
Mr. Jenner.
Looking now at the face of the photograph, Commission Exhibit No. 997, does--do the inscriptions on the reverse side correctly describe that area of General Walker's home and the Mormon church references?
Mr. Surrey.
Yes; they do.
