Mr. Rankin. You think that those letters, 251 through 254, are too carefully done for your son Lee?
Mrs. Oswald. Yes, sir. And if he did do them, he would have to have four or five copies to do it so perfect.
This is a little more scribbled. This signature looks more like Lee's than the other did.
Mr. Rankin. That is 255?
Mrs. Oswald. Yes, sir. 255.
This looks like Lee's handwriting—a lot of misspelling, and his signature. 256.
Now his Russian handwriting I know only from return addresses. However, I do have two brown papers with Russian writing on, from gifts that were sent to me. But I don't know if Lee addressed them or not.
And this is Lee's handwriting with a very fine pen. Isn't this handwriting backwards for a left hand? It seems when I looked at "my," it should be going this way—because I write like Lee, left handed.
Mr. Rankin. When you refer to this—or asked whether it was backwards, you were referring to Exhibit 257, were you?
Mrs. Oswald. Yes. This "m" should be going this way—which it is really. But it is kind of hard to testify to. I would say this is Lee's handwriting with a very fine pen, with reservations.
