Pinkston (1915-2011). Pinkston was a Dallas attorney prior to joining the Federal Bureau of Investigation. He retired from the Dallas FBI office in 1967 after twenty-eight years of service. Pinkston was involved in the local assassination investigation, notably tracing ownership of the Mannlicher-Carcano found in the Depository to employee Lee Harvey Oswald. He was also dispatched to the Texas School Book Depository on December 2, 1963, after Lee Harvey Oswald's clipboard was discovered in the northwest corner of the sixth floor near where the rifle had been found shortly after the assassination. -- Stephen Fagin, Curator","Twin radiators (visible here) were located just inside the main entrance to the Texas School Book Depository in 1963. One original radiator, possibly one of these from the first floor, was saved during Dallas County renovations in the late 1970s and is today part of the Museum's Collection.\r\n\r\nDue to persistent tourist interest in the building, a large sign was put in this doorway shortly after the assassination. It read: \"No Admittance Except on Official Business.\" According to Depository employees, this front door was also locked sometime after the assassination to prevent curiosity seekers from entering the building. -- Stephen Fagin, Curator"]},"id":{"label":"Id","value":"64823"},"dimensions":{"label":"Dimensions","value":"3 1/2 x 5 in.
