He seemed to have some emotional attachment to the Birth Certificate found among his mothers belongings.It may have been the pretty one that the hospitals used to give out. You know, the ones with the calligraphy, the fancy gold seal and the baby's footprint.

Yup, mine looks the same, footprints and all. However, in fine print at the bottom of my BC it says “Courtesy of Borden’s Evaporated Milk.” Plus the printed hospital name and location are crossed out and the correct hospital and location are handritten in. I can imagine the speculation and critique on the net about that if I had to submit mine for public view...LOL!
I was born in a very small town and I think they had to borrow a BC blank from the nearest large town.

They had all the fancy and foot prints back in the 40s too.
