Oswald’s Seaport Trader Order Coupon Mystery Solved

[Gary Craig]

Mr. BALL. Is there anything in your files which shows that the Railway Express did remit to you the $19.95?
Mr. MICHAELIS. The fact that the exhibit number--may I see this green one?
Mr. BALL. Five.
Mr. MICHAELIS. Was attached to the red copy of the invoice.
Mr. BALL. Red copy of the invoice being----
Mr. MICHAELIS. No; was attached to the red copy of the invoice, exhibit number----
Mr. BALL. Two.
Mr. MICHAELIS. Indicates that the money was received.





It would be nice to have a color photo of Michaelis Exhibit #2.

That shows the amount of the COD was paid from one company to another.

What I'm looking for is the receipt that shows LHO paid the COD amount.

Ever order something COD? Not too common these days.  When the package is delivered to the original customer generally

the shipper wants a receipt signed by the person receiving it. The buyer pays the COD amount and signs a receipt indicating the amount

paid and that the package was received. Both party's get a copy.

Considering the stuff found amongst LHO's personnel effects one expects such a receipt would have been there.

Besides, “paid” is written in on the line that says “excise tax”.

Who wrote the delivery information on the green document?

There wasn't an excise tax.

[Jerry Freeman]

There wasn't an excise tax.

Of course there was. It was paid [presumably] by the supplier.

Who wrote the delivery information on the green document?

No one will ever know.

What it absolutely screams is that it really was a Military Industrial Intelligence Community Complex c-o-n-s-p-i-r-a-c-y all after all, with hundreds (if not thousands!) of people involved!

Dozens anyway.
