Oswald Lee
Set of scarce limited edition photos of Lee Harvey Oswald, including one showing him ominously holding a rifle
Two glossy silver gelatin black and white limited edition prints of Lee Harvey Oswald (1939 - 1963) from a limited run of 50. This set is numbered 13 of 50. University Archives owns the negatives and has issued a limited print run of 50 sets; no further prints will be made. Page sizes with border is 8" x 10" each. Fine condition. Provenance: Robert Oswald.
A stunning set of ironic photos showing the incredible dichotomy that was Oswald's life. The first photo, taken in 1958 by Robert Oswald, shows Lee Harvey Oswald smiling as a marine on leave from USMC, rifle in hand, standing very much alone and detached in barren surroundings. Yet also with a smile which appears almost inappropriate for the setting. The second photo, taken just a few years later, shows Oswald holding his baby, June Oswald, born in 1963. This time the photo is in front of a classic suburban home. Again smiling, the photo is reminiscent of an orchestrated image depicting Oswald as a salt-of-the-earth and loving father. Of interest is that Oswald wore a distinctive plaid shirt like this one time and time again, including while stationed in Russia after he defected. The limited edition photographic images show a happy man in two very diverse settings, but we all know how that story ended.
A scarce and unusual set of limited edition photos. Perfect for a collector of Oswald or Kennedy memorabilia. The two silver gelatin 8" x 10" prints made from unique negatives purchased directly from Lee Harvey Oswald's brother, Robert, in 2015. Limited Edition of 50; no others will be printed by us.
***The last photo in the images (not present with this set) was taken while he was living in Minsk. Note the same or similar shirt.
This item comes with a Certificate from John Reznikoff, a premier authenticator for both major 3rd party authentication services, PSA and JSA (James Spence Authentications), as well as numerous auction houses.
