Lettow....
Thank you for the newspaper article! I think that pretty much answers the question of who signed it!

I am not ashamed to say I paid stupid money of 60$ for it!

Well duh - The answer to the fourth signature is right there in the press clip - the name is "Don Cumming", an apparent USO vet.  |

Wow I would have spent $60 on that easily.

If you can get the signatures verified as geniune, it should be worth quite a deal more than $60

I would pay $60 for that! Now, can't you just create a short-snorter by getting a bunch of people to sign an old silver certificate?

I've been buying these things for a while and did not have a qualm about buying this one. It is period correct as the yellow seal notes were used in the European/African theater during WW2. Bogart's signature compares favorably with other examples I have compared it to. Mayo's signature also compares favorably to other examples. I have not found examples of the remaining two signatures for comparison.
Could they be forged and counterfeited? Sure... we see counterfeits everyday in this business. The sports collectibles guys deal with it too. No difference with autographs. I'd pretty much give this one a 99.9%+ chance of being the real deal.

Fun and a good buy! Shame that someone wrote "short snorter" in the margin, but oh well.  |

Well worth the $60.00. The signatures match the two Bogarts I have on short snorters.
