Not only is it a proportional font with superscript, the type is also kerned. That's gotta be one clairvoyant typewriter to know what letter is coming next!

If what you have shown in your post is the docuument in question then the the relative youth of the forger is suggested by it.

I was 14 in 1972 and they had a few different fonts for official documents...VERY FEW and NOTHING as elegant as what our eyes are used to today.

There was a "computer" type that had a sort of high-tech look to it back then. Then there was the old ROYAL typwriter font which was a biggie. Then there was those IBM electrics with the flying ball supplanting the ROYAL.

Anyone alive then would doubt that "document" on the face of it.

Now that memo looks real... I have no doubt about it... Somebody should get this memo to Fox News ASAP... because the only way you get fair and balanced is to go to FOX NEWS.

LOL. Thanks for the effort put into creating this!

This is the kind of story where FR is at it's best.

That was so good I thought I authored it.

Actually, I did. In 1972. On a typewriter.
