SOMERTON MAN MICROCODE{ THE HAY INTERNMENT CAMP CONNECTION

 

HAY INTERNMENT CAMP BANKNOTE


Those new to this blog may not have seen the range of banknotes that were designed by one of the internees, George Adam Teltscher.

Note the date, 1st March 1941. Several internees worked on the notes under the supervision of George Teltscher. In other, much earlier posts, you will be able to see numerous images of the notes and the names of some of the internees involved.

The purpose behind posting this image is quite simple, within these notes you will find numerous examples of handwritten microcode. The date was 1941 and the Somerton Man case kicked off in 1948. But, the next known use of the technique was before that, it has also been found in the Boxall ROK and the handwritten inscription made by Jestyn and the date for that was 1945. 

Here are two close up examples of microcode from this banknote:

1. Number string in Shield design:


Within the outline surrounding the Shield, you can clearly see the series of letters and numbers.


2. Microcode within the cursive, handwritten signature of Richard Stahl, the manager of the internment bank.



Of the many examples, the above is the most significant one, Quite clearly within the cursive handwritten signature microcode can be seen.

Why is this significant? Because the Verse 70 inscription made by Jestyn in the book that she gave to Alf Boxall contains the exact same method of concealment of code.

Here's the thing, the technique shown in the Hay Banknotes was later, in 1943, found in a British SOE manual and described as INK H. It comes as no surprise that George Teltscher returned to the UK in 1942 and went to work for British Military.

Worthy of some note is the fact that one internee who was in the know about the banknotes was TIBOR KALDOR. he's the man who was found poisoned in a room of the Victoria Hotel in Hindley Street just 2 weeks after the discovery of the Somerton Man's body on the beach just 35 minutes away.

All the stories of car theft rings, Melbourne Baccarat players that have floated, (perhaps meandered is a better term), around the Somerton Man space, have no substance whatsoever.

I will add more images over the weekend.
