Mr. Eisenberg. Are those indentations visible to the naked eye on the card itself?
Mr. Cole. Yes, they are, if the card is held in a special way so that the light strikes the card at an angle.
Mr. Eisenberg. How do you think those indentations might have been caused, Mr. Cole?
Mr. Cole. They could have been made by any sharp instrument, for example, by a ballpoint pen which was not delivering ink at this particular time, or by a stylus-like instrument such as those that are used in preparing mimeograph forms, or even by a toothpick.
Mr. Eisenberg. Now, returning for a moment to the face of Commission Exhibit No. 795, in your previous testimony, as I recall it, you stated that while you could not make out precisely the signature of the member or clerk of local board, it appeared to be the name Good Hoffer, is that correct?
Mr. Cole. That is correct.
Mr. Eisenberg. Now, did that appear to be one word or two words?
Mr. Cole. It appears to me to be two words or two names, capital G-o-o-d, and then the name capital H-o-f-f-e-r.
Mr. Eisenberg. Now how did that compare to the signature of the member or clerk of local board on Commission Exhibit No. 801, the Oswald notice of classification?
Mr. Cole. Well, it is not the same name but it has some parts which correspond, namely, the letter “f.” That is, there are obviously two hand-written letters “f” in the last name of member or clerk of local board on Exhibit No. 801, and we also have a representation of hand-written letters “f” in about the same position on Commission Exhibit No. 795.
