Camerawoman Monica Wyatt adjusts her light while recording an wooden coffin in which John F. Kennedy’s assassin Lee Harvey Oswald was buried at Nate D. Sanders Auctions in Los Angeles, Wednesday. The coffin is being auctioned online by Texas mortuary owner Allen Baumgardner. The coffin was kept in storage after its exhumation in 1981. The original coffin was too water damaged to rebury Oswald.
