I am willing to bet there were print balls available with the th like that, and the th does appear on other Bush ANG records in that manner, so, those thinking that the superscript will be the smoking gun are probably going to be proved wrong. All they need is one document that Bush provided the media that has the superscript, and that piece of the puzzle becomes weak, and even Freepers have provided links to documents that appear to show the superscript was used. It is simply not a provable point, despite it's probability.

But, the fact that the K in the signature doesn't match, that the "writer's" son and widow claim they are fake, the fact that the spacing is identical to MS Word, the fact that experts say the font is only available on computers and many other issues really are more compelling anyway.

This is what happens, however, when people focus too heavily on one small detail before they have it 100% nailed down.

Yes ...and there were small specialist companies that would make the IBM Selectric balls in any language, with maths font etc.

During that time frame I was service engineer for a computer system with multiple print outputs in English, various European languages , Greek and Arabic.

each print line was dedicated to a language and needed the correct ball.

For example Greek has 24 letters in the alfabet with additional letters in accents.

FWIW
