within did Re: Kerry Tharmley December 12, 1967 (+ possible TO: JIM GARRISON, District Attorney FROM: GARY SANDERS, Investigator RE: LEE HARVEY OSWALD Mr. EDWARD A. BRAND, 1924 Riverway Lane, Dallas, Texas (a/c 214, 227-1495) was working for the Tower Insurance Company, 1045 N. Zangs, Dallas, Texas (a/c 214, WH 8-7596) at the time of the assassination. Mr. BRAND told a confidential source in Dallas that a man he later said was LEE HARVEY OSWALD had asked him about buying automobile insurance about a week or so before the assassination of President Kennedy. This is an interesting piece of information ince it would seem to verify the testimony of ALBERT GUY BOGARD, (10H352) a salesman for Downtown Lincoln-Mercury in Dallas, that a man who said he was LEE OSWALD had approached him about purchasing an automobile on November 9, 1963> It is also interesting to note that 1045 N. Zangs is only a few doors from 1026 N. Beckley. As far as I know, no one from this office has talked to Mr. BRAND and he should be contacted for any further information that he may have such as a signature of the man he talked to or an order form which might have been filled out in anticipation of the insurance sale.
