Cooper letter to New York Times (Q33-Q34) Id: Cooper-Part-18:228-228 Page: https://cooper.theunsolved.net/documents/Cooper-Part-18%3A228-228 What is wrong (title, date, type, which pages belong together, copies)? What does the scan show?
A person reads every report. Corrections are made by hand, to the data — titles, dates, names, which pages belong together — never to the scans, and they can take a while to appear.

Result of examination:
Specimens Q34, Q24, Q26 and Q28 are carbon copies of the same original letter with the exception of the numbers at the bottom of these items.
The typewriting on Q33 and Q34 most closely matches a pica style of type used on Singer electric typewriters. It is noted, however, that similar styles of pica type are found on Smith-Corona typewriters.
No watermarkings indented writing or other features were found on Q33 and Q34 which would be of value in determining the source of these specimens.
Q33 and Q34 were photographed and will be returned separately.
