On 4/2/73, [redacted] [guess: Florsheim] Shoe Company, 5th Avenue, Seattle, advised that during the morning of 4/2/73, he was waiting on a customer who said his name was D.B. COOPER.
[redacted] explained that while he was waiting on the customer, who was purchasing shoes, the cost of the shoes arose during which the customer said that money was no problem that he used to work for Northwest Airlines and his name was D.B. COOPER.
[redacted] said the customer did have quite a roll of $20 bills and used one to buy a pair of shoes.
During a rather lengthy conversation, the man gave his name as [redacted] residing at [redacted] Seattle, Washington, which is operated by [redacted]
[redacted] said [redacted] whose first name was not given, said one of the reasons D.B. COOPER was successful was because of his politeness during the hijacking and said a person can do anything if he has a mind.
[redacted] said it weird the fact that the man said he was "D.B. COOPER" and in commenting about making such an open statement, the man said people don't believe you when you tell them you are D.B. COOPER anyway.
