Two black circular document control marks at the top of the page, typical of FBI teletype or routing documents. Document reference number identifying this as Bureau Teletype number 164-26. Page 2 of a Bureau Teletype discussing a subject who wrote a fictional story in which characters escaped with money. The subject stated only two copies of the story were made; the original was given to a redacted party and the subject retained the second copy. The subject never attempted to publish the story nor sent it to a publishing house. The subject was eliminated as a suspect based on age and physical description. A second redacted individual was contacted and advised to have the original copy of the story; this person bears no physical similarities to the hijacker. Standard FBI warning notation appearing at the close of the teletype, indicating the subject (D.B. Cooper) is considered armed and dangerous. Page number indicator showing this is page 2 of the document, and the FBI case file stamp 'DB COOPER-45118'.
