Yep. There was a whole lot of back an forth before the font experts finished their analysis.

Two simple facts make Mapes claims rubbish. In the year since the CBS fiasco, not one document from ANY 1970 source has matched the typesetting features of the CBS documents. Even one piece of unrelated paper from any National Guard unit the matched those documents would do.

Second, even though IBM Composers were raher common, and some working units still exist, no one has been able to duplicate the appearance of the CBS documents.

Second, even though IBM Composers were "rather" common, and some working units still exist, no one has been able to duplicate the appearance of the CBS documents.

Furthermore, even had they been able to duplicate them exactly, the probability of an exact spacing match would have been as low as the probability of a DNA match between two unrelated men.
