I took a close up view of the signature. I suppose the "O" could be a first initial and then "Berhellmann". But did a search and came up with nothing of a surname like that. I did find "Berkellmann" as a surname. All my findings are German in origin.
So the signature could read "O. Berkellmann". From what I gather at looking at the signature that they printed it all in upper case letters or a combination. I have seen people write that way. Uppercase substituting for lowercase. All speculation. ;) -- Mark, aka Tatman website: http://www.tat-man.net blog: http://tat-man.net/blog Magic Thread Shop: http://www.tat-man.net/tatterville/tatshop/tatshop.html email: tat...@tat-man.net On 6/11/10 2:13 PM, "dmt11h...@aol.com" <dmt11h...@aol.com> wrote: > In a message dated 6/11/2010 12:49:52 P.M.
