A piece of the picket fence from Dallas' Dealey Plaza, where John F. Kennedy was assassinated, goes up for online auction tomorrow through Lelands.com. Minimum opening bid is $5000. Some believe that a second gunman fired away at JFK from behind the fence. From the Associated Press:
The fence was rescued from the junk heap five years ago by Dealey Plaza tour guide Ronald D. Rice. When a construction crew began dismantling the fence to replace it in January 2000, Rice grabbed four sections each nearly 6 feet long and 4 1/2 feet high and put them into storage.
When the storage payments were not made, the fence was sold at public auction to Daniel Moses, who approached Lelands last year about selling it off…
Several of the pickets have JFK-related graffiti, including the message, "Oswald Was Framed."
