Description: First Edition. Hardcover. Octavo, 888pp., illustrated. Very good in the publisher's navy cloth, with the front inner hinge cracked, but holding, and a few ink markings to the front paste-down. Else crisp and clean. INSCRIBED on the title page by Chief Justice Earl Warren, "For Don J. Campbell with the best wishes of Earl Warren." Campbell was an advertising salesman for the Dallas Morning News. According to Warren Commission Exhibit number 2436, Campbell testified that Jack Ruby was in his office around 12:00 noon, when Kennedy's motorcade was proceeding, and just before he was assassinated. Campbell testified that Ruby, who was a regular advertising customer, was complaining about the seedy nature of his business, and also bragging about some of his political connections (see Campbell's full official testimony here: https://www.history-matters.com/archive/jfk/wc/wcvols/wh25/pdf/WH25_CE_2436. pdf) The Warren Commission Report is often found signed by future President Gerald Ford, who sat on the commission, but rarely found signed by Warren. This is an appealing copy, with provenance relating to the assassination. . Very good.
