Chain of custody

Our own working, published so a reader can run it rather than take it. Includes the signature overlay at 400 per cent, the clean 1947 scan the presidential library sent us free in four days, and step-by-step instructions for repeating every test that does not require an original.

Held by: They Buried; published in full

Excerpt

TEST 12 · SIGNATURE
  method: scale both to equal signature width, overlay, top layer 50%
  result: strokes register. loops nest. the break in the first downstroke
          lands on the break in the first downstroke.
  second opinion: K. Duplessis-Nam, $1,900 — concurs
  note: two genuine signings never register. this is one signing, twice.

Transcribed by the data desk. Line breaks follow the original. Bracketed matter is ours.

Editor's note

Filed in the rejected drawer. The documents are not what they claim to be. None of this is our discovery — the analysis has been in print since the 1990s — and our contribution is better pictures and a recipe.
