Abstract

When the Fraudulent Cheque File was organized in this laboratory in 1959, checks were filed under such headings as modus operandi, company names, suspects' names, dates of birth, and aliases, as well as headings related to the actual composition of the check—typewriting, checkwriting, etc. Only when search under these headings was successful could a handwriting comparison be made.
