History
The Universal Counterfeit and Altered Bank Note Detector, at Sight
Foote, Henry C.
Bank notes; Counterfeits and counterfeiting
A. WALSH, Jr., Teller Bank of Lansingburgh.
_New York, Dec. 22d, 1849._--I concur in the above statements.
AMASA Z. FOSTER, Exchange Broker, 234 Pearl street.
_New York, Dec. 26th, 1849._--I have examined Mr. H. C. Foote’s system for
detecting counterfeit Bank paper and think it useful, especially in
well-executed counterfeits where judgment must depend upon the engraving
alone.
W. R. VERMILYE,
Of Carpenter & Vermilye, Exchange Brokers, 54 Wall street.
_New York, Nov. 17th, 1849._--Having taken lessons in counterfeit Bank
Note Detection, as given by Mr. H. C. Foote, I hesitate not to say that I
am fully satisfied that if strictly followed and practised upon, any man
may detect the most ingenious counterfeit. It has the advantage of being
reduced to system, and the information imparted respecting genuine
engraving is worth double the cost of lesson.

hesitation in saying that I am fully satisfied that it can by strict
attention to the rules be made an infallible means of detecting all kinds
of spurious Bills.
