The Bill:
The "short snorter" bill seen in our profile picture was found by a bank teller in Tempe, Arizona in 1997. The bill was given to the teller as part of a cash deposit from a merchant at a local mall and the teller thought it was peculiar. The bill was swapped out of the cash drawer for a modern $1 bill, put in the teller's collection, and forgotten about for 17 years. After a house fire i

n 2013, the bill was rediscovered in a box of items taken out of the teller's parents' home. What is a "short snorter"?:
A short snorter is a banknote which was signed by various persons traveling together or meeting up at different events and records who was met. The tradition was started by bush pilots in Alaska in the 1920's and subsequently spread through the growth of military and commercial aviation. If you signed a short snorter and that person could not produce it upon request, they owed you a dollar or a drink!
