Enclosed is one copy of a letter and the envelope in which it was mailed, received this date by the Managing Editor of the Seattle Times Newspaper, Seattle, Washington.
Instant letter is signed D. B. COOPER and indicates that copies of that letter were sent to the Washington Post, the New York Times and the Los Angeles Times.
The writer of the letter claims, among other things, that he is not a boasting man; that he left no fingerprints; that he wore a toupee; and that he wore putty make-up.
The letter itself was possibly handled by [REDACTED] |the Seattle Times. They are [REDACTED]|
The Laboratory is requested to make an examination of the enclosed letter, in order to determine any similar letters that have been forwarded. The Laboratory is also requested to determine if the paper on which the letter is written could conceivably be from government stock, noting that it resembles the carbon copy of the airtel material used by the Field Offices.
It is also requested that the enclosed letter and envelope be processed for latent fingerprints.
WFO, New York and Los Angeles have also been requested to obtain the copies of these letters sent to the indicated newspapers and forward them to the Bureau.
