The license plates that were on the limousine carrying President John F Kennedy when he was assassinated 52 years ago are going up for auction.
The plates, which were once picked out of the garbage by the owner of retrofitting the car, JetBlack are being offered by Heritage Auctions on Saturday in Dallas and the opening bid is $40,000.
The limo was reportedly sent for upgrades to a Cincinnati company after the assassination in November 1963, and the plates could have been lost forever if they had not been scooped up Willard Hess and stored for decades.
