Forest Sorrells

Secret Service agent Forest Sorrells is surrounded by 25,000 photo copies of a 10 dollar bill that made up and advertising gimick. Seems a Dallas printer copied on half of a bill and on the other half printed an ad copy. The bill was rolled up and deposited on sidewalks making people think they had found some money. The unrolled bill revealed an ad. The idea got good reception until the Secret Service reminded the printer that it is illegal to reproduce money. The bogus money will wind up in the fire but no charges were expected to be filed as there was no intent to defraud.
