Jack Ruby trial original 6.5 x 8.5” black-and-white press photograph depicting defense witness Mrs. Karen Lynn Bennett being fingerprinted during proceedings in Dallas, Texas. The image captures Bennett at close range as prints are taken, with law enforcement personnel and case materials visible in the foreground. The verso bears the original period press caption identifying the scene as part of the Jack Ruby trial following Ruby’s killing of Lee Harvey Oswald, with standard newsroom markings and a December 1964 dateline.

Near fine condition.

Taken during one of the most closely followed trials in American history, this photograph offers a stark, procedural glimpse into the legal aftermath of the Kennedy assassination. Trial-room images documenting evidentiary steps such as fingerprinting are particularly compelling, underscoring the gravity and intensity surrounding the Ruby proceedings.
