Mr. Dulles. It will be admitted as 651.
(The photograph referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 651, and received in evidence.)
Mr. Eisenberg. By the way, Mr. Latona, on 649 there seems to be a scotch tape or cellophane tape over the fingerprint, is that right?
Mr. Latona. That is right.
Mr. Eisenberg. Now, apparently there was no attempt at a lift being made here?
Mr. Latona. No. This evidently was a print which was developed directly on the paper itself. The employing of that adhesive material like scotch tape was to protect the print itself.
Had they tried to lift that up I am afraid they would have spoiled that because they would have lifted the fibers of the cardboard along with it.
Mr. Eisenberg. Is that why, you think, they didn't lift it?
Mr. Latona. Yes; very definitely.
Mr. Eisenberg. By the way, did the Dallas police take photographs of the lift which we had earlier, the lift which was apparently taken from Exhibit 139, or to put the question—actually I am not interested in whether they took photographs of the lift; do you know whether they took photographs of the print?
