<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chip, post: 1499477, member: 19122&quot;]I was reading this old book called Lincoln; Master of men, and in the book it had an interesting passage where Lincoln had some of these newly printed notes and remarked to someone, (I do not remember if it was a cabinet member or a secretary) how much labor it would be for Spinner to sign all those notes and what a unique signature it was.</p><p>&nbsp;Lincoln did not seem to understand that the signature was printed and not signed, this was because the presses that printed the notes actually made in impression into the paper, unlike most printed materials that one could easily see wether the signature was printed or actually handwritten.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
