glassene tape from translux down jones ticker theday president kennedy assinated

  • the tape began running at time before stock exchanged opened . it was usually cut and placed on a hanging board. this day for some reason earlier than the tragic news began, the clerk did not cut it. and when the first news of the attempt and the ultimate news , the tape just kept running into a waste basket. I was a bond trader at the time. we in group just sat stunned. when we decide to leave. I walked past the basket . the complete day was there. impulse told me to cut and roll it.which is how it is now and has been for the 40 odd years. it is still clear fine condition. I do not want to unroll it again unless asked the length for interested reason. memory serves it is minimum of 12 feet more like 17 feet. there must be a historical home for it. it contains every mkt and other comment of the day.concerning activity at hospital etc etc. petroc-ga
