Bill,
Thanks for your response and information. The last name of Carpenter was a name my wife and I thought it could be, but couldn't tell for sure.
I have to ask, what do you mean by a "pretty poor reproduction"? I presume you mean the signature was done by a secretary? I never thought about a person (other than a government official) having someone sign a letter for them in the mid twenties.
Why would this gun, serial number 213XXX, be too late to letter with a ship to? The last letter I got was on a VHE serial number 230XXX, would that not be later than 213XXX by four years?
