Mr. Eisenberg. Mr. Chairman, may these two photographs be admitted as 814 and 815?
Mr. McCloy. They may be.
(The photographs referred to were marked as Commission Exhibits Nos. 814 and 815, and received in evidence.)
Mr. Eisenberg. 814 will be exterior part of 813, and 815 will be the interior.
Now, the exterior portion of 813 also shows some handprinting "Lee H. Oswald" which came out in this photograph—in 814—a little clearer. Did you identify that handwriting, Mr. Cole——
Mr. Cole. I did.
Mr. Eisenberg. As being—what was your conclusion?
Mr. Cole. It is my conclusion that that handprinting is in the hand of the person who made the standard specimens.
Mr. Eisenberg. Now by reference to those photographs, 814 and 815, and by reference to your charts of the standards, could you explain the reasons for your conclusion on the handwriting and handprinting?
Mr. Cole. With respect to the signature, "Lee H. Oswald," as shown by the photograph 815, this compares favorably with other sample signatures that I have examined, some of which are shown on the charts, namely chart A, item 15; chart B, item 15; and chart C, item 6, second line from the bottom. There is, I think, a closer comparison with certain other standard signatures of "Lee H. Oswald" which I have examined, as appearing on the reverse of certain checks.
