Dear Sir:
I have written a book length novel based upon the D.B. Cooper
episode of 1971, which will be released in early 1980.
It would be appropriate to have an authentic reproduction of the
composit drawing of the suspect, as has been publically released
by the FBI.
I am therefore, writing to inquire if I could prevail upon
you to send one to me that I could use, crediting its source
as the FBI.
Very Sincerely,
[REDACTED]
