Mr. Liebeler.

After he brought the rifle home, then, he showed you the book?
*Mrs. OSWALD. Yes.

Mr. Liebeler.

And you said it was not a good idea to keep this book?
*Mrs. OSWALD. Yes.

Mr. Liebeler.

And then he burned the book?
*Mrs. OSWALD. Yes.

Mr. Liebeler.

Did you ask him why he had not destroyed the book before he actually went to shoot General Walker?

Mrs. Oswald.

It never came to me, myself, to ask him that question.

Mr. Liebeler.

Did you see him take the pictures, the photographs, out of the book when he destroyed it?

Mrs. Oswald.

When I saw him burning the book--I'm not positive that he burned the photographs or not with the book. He retained the negatives and he preserved either the photographs themselves or the negatives. I know that they have the photographs and I don't know whether they got the originals or whether they made them from the negatives.

Mr. Mckenzie.

Now, when you say "they," Marina, who do you mean by "they?"

Mrs. Oswald.

FBI, Secret Service, and the President's Commission.

Mr. Liebeler.

I show you Commission Exhibit No. 5, which is a copy of one of the photographs that was found among these effects after the assassination.
*Mrs. OSWALD. Yes.

Mr. Liebeler.

Does that appear to be one of the photographs about which you were speaking?
*Mrs. OSWALD. Yes; that's one.

Mr. Liebeler.

Are you absolutely sure about that?
*Mrs. OSWALD. No; I don't remember when Lee showed me the picture that it was this.

Mrs. Oswald.

When I was first shown this picture, I remember that there was a license plate number on this car.

Mr. Liebeler.

When Lee showed you the picture, there was a license plate number on the car?
*Mrs. OSWALD. Yes.

Mr. Liebeler.

As shown in Commission Exhibit No. 5; is that right?
*Mrs. OSWALD. Yes.

Mr. Liebeler.

When you look at this picture you see that there is a black mark on the back of this, do you know what makes that black mark?
*Mrs. OSWALD. No; but I think when the Commission showed me this picture the number was there.

Mr. Mckenzie.

License plate?

Mrs. Oswald.

I would have remembered this black spot if it were there at the time the Commission showed me this, or the FBI. When the FBI first showed me this photograph I remember that the license plate, the number of the license plate was on this car, was on the photograph.
*Mrs. OSWALD. It had the white and black numbers. There was no black spot that I see on it now. When Lee showed me this photograph there was the number on the license plate on this picture. I would have remembered it if there were a black spot on the back of the car where the license plate would be.

Mr. Liebeler.

The original of this picture, the actual photograph, has a hole through it. That's what makes this black spot.
*Mrs. OSWALD. This is from the negative?

Mr. Gregory.

This picture was made from the original photograph, rather than from a negative?

Mr. Liebeler.

Yes; it's simply a picture of a picture.

Mrs. Oswald.

When the FBI and Lee showed me this particular picture--
*Mrs. OSWALD. Not this big size.

Mrs. Oswald.

This photograph--it was a smaller size.

Mr. Liebeler.

Yes.

Mrs. Oswald.

There was a license plate on this car.

Mr. Liebeler.

Do you remember that very clearly?

Mrs. Oswald.

When Lee showed it to me, I remember very distinctly that there was a license plate on this car. When this business about General Walker came up I would have remembered this black spot.
