Description
AMERICAN INTELLIGENCE (O.S.S.) FILE OF FORGERIES
Important group of documents (in blank) captured by American agents and used to identify German forgeries of American military identification. Included is an Office of War Information ID which bears a period note indicating that the word "explanation" had been misspelled on this forgery, a soldier's pay record with a red arrow shooing a printing error, and other identification including Social security card, draft registration card (2), enlisted man's identification, Red Cross membership card, Army driver's permit, and instrument flight test certificate. Also present is a German travel pass forged by American intelligence, as well as a photo of a German pass with handwritten notes indicating type and ink colors and a note on verso: "to London and Algiers". Finally, there is a quarto sheet of stationery bearing a forged (and faulty) Seal of the United States watermark, used by German intelligence. Very good, and likely unique.
