Armstrong says the Minox at the Archives was sealed shut with what he said felt like it was filled with cement.
Notice please the 5-digit serial number of the Minox returned from Dallas field office to FBO HQ in the 2/2/64 Airtel... this is the "not available to the public" group of serial numbers on cameras sold only to the US intelligence services.
Plus the Minox III could not have had a serial number in this range (see: http://www.minox.org/minoxencyclopedia/a/ModelA.html). The 5-digit serial number (27253) would indicate that the cameral the DPD initially obtained from the Paine residence on 11/22/63 must have been a Model A, Series II, Minox subminiature camera, not the Minox Model A, Series III camera that was obtained from Micheal Paine and shown in the color photograph). Plus the serial numbers are not shown on the outside of the camera but on the inside, so if the camera was sealed shut, how did they obtain the S/N and why would they say that the camera contained a roll of film on the inside if they couldn't open it?
