W.E. DU BOIS HANDWRITING CONFIRMED
In a previous E-Sylum, David Cassel asked for help
confirming a handwriting sample attributed to early U.S.
Mint office William Du Bois. In a letter to NBS Board
member Joel Orosz (and copied to The E-Sylum), David writes:"You are a great detective to notice so many matches of
handwriting samples. ... If this isnt a case of the
old adage, you scratch my back and Ill scratch yours,
then I don't know what is. We both proved each others query.I am not sure how valuable the proof of your documents is to
you, but the proof of my documents used in the writing of my
yet to be released book, United States Pattern Postage
Currency Coins, validates much of my research, study, and
theories, and disproves some of what was offered by the
experts before me. I am grateful that you responded to my
query for samples of the handwriting of William E. Du Bois."- 1999-09-19
