Major General Edwin Walker in 1962, Ambassador Adlai Stevenson in Dallas,
President Kennedy's chair at the Dallas
Trade Mart, the assassination aftermath in
Dealey Plaza, Lee Harvey Oswald in police custody, Jack Ruby in police
custody, the Jack Ruby trial, John and Nellie Connally at Dallas Love Field
in 1964, Marina Oswald departing for her Warren Commission appearances in
1964, and numerous other events and individuals as recent as the Dealey
Plaza National Historic Landmark District designation ceremonies in 1993.
The collection also includes numerous artifacts and documents related to
Winfrey's work.
