• Comment – Obviously this photo has been extant for over half a century. New EV not apparent. – Sca (talk) 12:42, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
  • @Sca – The encyclopedic value of the image can be justified as it strongly contributed to the article "Assassination of John F. Kennedy", and is used in various other articles. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 12:52, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
• Comment Hugely historical, but otherwise not FP. There are better restored versions online. Charlesjsharp (talk) 13:37, 14 September 2021 (UTC)

• Charles, what other better restored versions? Do you have links? Bammesk (talk) 01:03, 15 September 2021 (UTC)

• I Googled and found it on a fine art site. Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:45, 15 September 2021 (UTC)

• Charles, I googled it too but didn't find anything better. Can you give us a url link to what you found? Bammesk (talk) 01:13, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

• That's not a better version. It's contrasty and oversaturated. Bammesk (talk) 00:24, 17 September 2021 (UTC)

• Comment – Technically subpar even for the period: jumbled spot news pic that fails to focus on the star of the parade. – Sca (talk) 12:32, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
