A never-seen-before video of the moments after President John F. Kennedy’s assassination in Dallas, Texas, in 1963 has emerged.
The newly merged video shows President Kennedy’s motorcade speeding down a Dallas freeway heading towards the hospital, where Kennedy was later pronounced dead.
Stephen Fagin, the curator at The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza, stated, “These images, these films and photographs, a lot of times, they are still out there. They are still being discovered or rediscovered in attics or garages.”
People Magazine reported the footage was filmed by Dale Carpenter Sr., a Dallas truck driver who filmed the tragedy near the Stemmons Freeway.
James Gates, the grandson of Carpenter, who inherited the video after his grandfather passed away, shared, “The film was stored in a plastic Dean Foods milk crate and had been in my closet for several years before I decided to put it in a fire safe.”
The 8mm home film is now set to be auctioned in Boston at the end of September.

VIDEO AT LINK.............
Per CBS News:
Newly emerged film footage of President John F. Kennedy’s motorcade speeding down a Dallas freeway toward a hospital after he was fatally wounded will go up for auction later this month.
Experts say the find isn’t necessarily surprising, even over 60 years after the assassination.
“These images, these films and photographs, a lot of times they are still out there. They are still being discovered or rediscovered in attics or garages,” said Stephen Fagin, curator at The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza, which tells the story of the assassination on Nov. 22, 1963.
RR Auction will offer up the 8 mm home film in Boston on Sept. 28. It begins with Dale Carpenter Sr. just missing the limousine carrying the president and first lady Jacqueline Kennedy but capturing other vehicles in the motorcade as it traveled down Lemmon Avenue toward downtown. The film then picks up after Kennedy has been shot, with Carpenter rolling as the motorcade roars down Interstate 35.
Since JFK’s assassination in November of 1963, numerous theories have been raised regarding whether Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone gunman behind the assassination plot.
President Trump plans to offer more transparency regarding Kennedy’s assassination and promised to release the JFK files in total.
8mm Ping!.................
Didn’t see any video there, but...interesting.
Thanks. If newsreel footage of the aftermath in Dealey Plaza (looking north or south on Houston, to or from the corner with Elm) shows up, let me know.
I know you’re used to 16 or more
Sorry, I only have 8.
Thanks!....................
Thank you, Donald.
Saw a photo but no video.
I have a copy of the Zapruder 8mm film. When I had an 8mm projector the film show the hit but at the same time it was blocked by some sign. I still say he was capped from the grassy knoll, Oswald was a patsy. I worked on Nixons Limo and had a discussion with the folks that Armour plated Kennedys Limo and told me that there was a scratch in the passenger side windshield could only be attributed to ballistics as the windshield was bullet proof. I shortened this up, didn’t want to bore y’all.
You ARE CORRECT.
OSWALD WAS A PATSY.
JAMES EARL RAY WAS A PATSY.
THOMAS MATTHEW CROOKS WAS A PATSY.
I DON’T KNOW ABOUT SIRHAN SIRHAN.............
The longer they talk about it the more it will bring at auction.
This is probably the best book written on the RFK assassination:

Oh, I meant the actual video shot, not the discussion. That was interesting, though.
I admit, there was something weirdly gleeful about their manner that didn’t really fit the somber subject to me, but I get they are historians geeked out about finding new video, not what it shows or the subject matter.
That is true...didn’t think of that!

“I DON’T KNOW ABOUT SIRHAN SIRHAN”
Sirhan had a gun and did open fire on Bob Kennedy from in front of him. But how that bullet entered the back right portion of the skull is interesting. And there were other bullet holes in the walls of the kichen involved.
