Enclosed for Seattle is one photograph of EDWARD J. COOPER.
On 3/10/76, JOHN M. GUTENKUNST, National Merchandising Manager, Montgomery Ward, Department 74, Chicago, Illinois, advised that he is the immediate superior of suspect EDWARD J. COOPER who is employed as a buyer.
GUTENKUNST described COOPER as a white male, DOB 1/26/36, 5'11", 135 lbs., light brown hair, fair complexion, wears eyeglasses, SSAN 339-26-8045, address 2209 West Greenleaf, Chicago, Illinois. GUTENKUNST advised that COOPER has been working the Pacific Northwest since 1969 and that COOPER also travels extensively throughout the U. S. and overseas.
GUTENKUNST viewed the two artist's conceptions of the unsub in this matter and stated that in his opinion it does not resemble COOPER.
GUTENKUNST described COOPER as a nervous, energetic individual who chain smokes very heavily. GUTENKUNST did not know what brand of cigarettes COOPER smokes. He further advised that COOPER is not a pilot or parachutist but that his military service was in the Aviation branch of the U.S. Navy although GUTENKUNST did not know exactly what COOPER's military occupation was. He further advised that COOPER was a college graduate.
