Thanks! The yearbook will be WELL taken care of; I assure you of that! It's being stored in a 5', 800lb safe at the moment. I have collected ALL kinds of true crime artifacts over the years but this one is a WHOPPER for me. I can probably take more pics of other pages with sigs in the yearbook if interested. Also, if its ok with you guys I'd like to add some of your examples to my album that I've created on Facebook. If this isn't ok please let me know.

Compellingly close in that they each appear to be created in single stroke, with same right leading tail falling off. The Red Phantom letter is unlike the others in that it is showing us a new style, the writer also does not identify himself as Z.....Morrill put his stamp on it, some disagreed but now, seeing R in yearbook....man, that is CLOSE.

Ross "guy" vs Zodiac "guy". The angles and spacing of the "g" and the "u" are almost identical as seen in the overlay

Ross "quiet" vs Zodiac "quietly". The angle and spacing between the "q" and the "u" are almost identical as seen on the overlay. Also note the transposed dot of the "i" over the next letter "e". He seems to do this constantly
