DescriptionBlack and white photograph of a man using a Clipper Concrete Saw to remove a section of curb in Dealey Plaza for the FBI on August 5, 1964. He is cutting out a section of curb with a mark on it that might have been made by a shot that missed the presidential limousine. The photographer faced west, looking toward triple underpass, from the median between Main and Commerce streets. This copy of a photograph was part of FBI Special Agent Lyndal Shaneyfelt's Kennedy assassination file; Shaneyfelt assisted in the FBI investigations of the assassination conducted on behalf of the Warren Commission in 1964.
