Brilliant from Oswald in his own way. Set it up for the cameras to film him being punched by Bringuier.

Oswald usually handed out leaflets with his home address on them.

The one occasion Oswald is known to have used pamphlets with the "544 CAMP ST." stamp was August 9, 1963, the day Carlos Bringuier and friends discovered him holding a demonstration only a few blocks from Bringuier's store. A year and a half earlier, 544 Camp Street had briefly been the workplace of *drum roll * - Carlos Bringuier - when he had served the Cuban Revolutionary Council.

Oswald went to a lot of trouble to set up that arrest on Canal St. He wanted Bringuier to hit him on TV so he could go write the Fair Play for Cuba Committee telling them of his near martyrdom.

Clearly a well laid trap for Bringuier to confront Oswald (which he did) and they all got chucked in jail. Oswald had the choice to pay a $25 fine and leave or to stay in jail. He chose to stay in jail. The questioning officer later said it looked like Oswald had set Bringuier up. Hence the later appearances of "it was staged" in conspiracy books. It was staged. By Oswald. This was all done to prove to the Fair Play For Cuba HQ in New York that he was worthy and legit. A "street agitator".

Yes... you're right  ...but I don't think Lee set it up for the benefit of "VT LEE" of the FPFCC....I believe he was desperately trying to trick Castro's spies into believing that he was in complete sympathy with Castro's revolution so he could gain entry to Cuba where he could spy on events taking place in Cuba.  ( There were rumors that the Russians were building missile sites in Cuba)

When he talked to the FBI agent he pointed out that the literature  The pamplets (not the leaflets or circulars) had the 544 Camp street address stamped inside on the back cover.   What he wanted the FBI to know was that "someone" at 544 Camp street appeared to be in support of Fidel Castro. ( Carlos Bringuier had had an office at that address ....and so did Hoover's extra special agent Guy Bannister.)

Where did you get $25?

According to WC Oswald's fine was $10.

Guy Bannisters office was in 531 Lafayette Street. Same building but around the corner and not accessible from 544 Camp St without leaving the building and re-entering around the corner.

Thats what he ended up being fined in court on the Monday. The bail (I should've said bail to begin with) to get out of prison after the arrest was $25. The Cubans paid it and got out, Oswald didn't and spent the night in jail.

Oswald called his cousin Joyce Murret to come and bail him out (actually called his aunt and uncle but they weren't in) but when she saw his pro Castro literature at the jail she refused.
