Here is a picture from the 6th Floor Museum online site:
Well, I can't get the picture to show up in this post but here is the link:
http://emuseum.jfk.org/view/objects/asit...3042919ef6
It shows a Dallas police officer (J.M. Valentine) standing next to window with sunlight streaming in. The caption for the picture is:
"Image of a Dallas Police officer pointing to the location of the rifle"
And the date of the photo is 11/22/63.
Now, my recollection might be a bit foggy, but wasn't the Carcano 91/38 rifle recovered not near a window but near the elevator in the northwest corner of the building? Also, in the winter in Texas, the sun is slanted far to the south, even during the day, which is why all the TSBD employees on the steps (facing south) are shading their eyes. Even if there was a window on the north side of the building near the elevator, there wouldn't be sunlight strongly shining through it in November.
So, since he's NOT showing us where the gun was (officially) found, is this guy pointing out the "sniper's nest"? The box he's pointing over doesn't look tall enough to be the stacked boxes that are in the other pictures of the snipers nest like CE 715 (and which can still be seen (as a reproduction) in the 6th Floor Museum to this date). Also, if that's a south facing window, the sunlight in the afternoon of the 22nd would be slanting east (away from the officer). If the officer is standing at a west side window, the sunlight would be in the correct place for afternoon Nov. 22, but then he's pointing out yet a third location for the gun.
And wasn't DPD JM Valentine assigned that day to the mysterious "car 207" that, it was reported, drove by and honked at Oswald's boarding house?
Is this another photographic anomaly, or is the picture simply mislabeled?
