EXTORTION

10/20/69

Qc19 Photocopy of envelope postmarked "San Francisco Calif. JB PM 13 OCT. 1969" bearing hand printed address "S. F. Chronicle San Fran. Calif. Please Rush To Editor"

Qc20 Photocopy of accompanying hand printed letter beginning "This is the Zodiac speaking..."

and ending "...kiddies as they come bouncing out."

Results of examination:

It could not be determined whether the

questioned hand printing on Q1 through Qc6, Cc8 through Qc10, Qc12 through Qc14, Qc19 and Qc20, was prepared by one or more persons, because the photocopies of these specimens do not show sufficient detail for a satisfactory examination; however, characteristics

were noted which indicate that these specimens vere probably prepared by one parson.

Qc7, Qcll, and Qc15 are photocopies of

ciphers and are not comparable with the questioned hand printing in this matter. Qc16 and Qc17 are typewritten. Q18 is a key for the decryption of the ciphers in this matter and is not comparable with the questioned hand printing.

Q019 and Qc20 are retained.
