In the above folder you will see on the left the description written in Bangla. To the right the imperforate stamp and written in English “Approved” and a signature below it in Bangla. To the right, the Bangla printed “APPROVED* text has a check mark made on it. This checking of the “Approved”, or “Not approbved” text was not done on many of the fake and genuine folders. Below that are four lines rubber stamped in English.

DESCRIPTION ON LEFT: Bangla is written so that it appears that most of the tops of the figures are in alignment, with a few markings above the line, therefore it appears to “hangs” below a line. The illustrated folder above has it above the dotted line. In the majority of the small fake folders, it is written above the dotted line. In the larger fake ones it is written above and below. In the genuine folders, the majority have the description written below the dotted like, but a few are found with it above it.

APPROVED or NOT APPROVED: On the genuine folders this would not be written in English with a signature in Bangla. There are a few fakes with the signature written in English as well. The genuine folders seen to date do not have this comment, nor a signature. This is found written with a pen or a ballpoint pen in black, blue and green ink. It was even printed on some folders, rather than in script. Often the two choices (in Bangla, under the stamp) is left blank or checked. Ironically many of them have “Approved”, but the Bangla “Not Approved” checked, or just the opposite, with it stating “Not Approved” and the Bangla “Approved” checked.

SIGNATURE: In the fake covers the signature is found in ink and ballpoint pen. The colors are blue, black and green. Often it is obvious, even though the name is the same, that it was written by someone else. In two instances they listed directors after Mr. Sanullah was relieved of his duties, and another name is that of a person who was never Director.

RUBBER STAMPED 4 LINES OF TEXT: On the fake covers it can be found in English or Bangla and either purple or black. The genuine covers do not have this in either language. However I do believe I have seen one folder and it did have the rubber stamped text but it said “Stamps”, rather than “Stamp”. The ones on the cards in Bangla state that Sheikh Mohammed Sanaullah is the Director.
