1988 New Canaan Cipher Solutions --------------------------------
With personal thanks to Richard Grinell and Mike Morford.
From FBI documentation,here is an accurate interpretation of the two cipher solutions,as expressed by the FBI,with respect to the ciphers,contained within the 1988 New Canaan Letter.
S H A U N A I F Y O U W I S H T O K N O W M Y I D E N T I T Y Y O U W I L L H A V E T O P U T S O M E E F F O R T I N T O I T D O N O T F I D D L E A N D F A R T A R O U N D H E R E I S A C L U E A S K M I S S U S T A Y L O R I F S H E R E M E M B E R S W H O D R A W S T H E S Y M B O L T H E N Y O U W I L L H A V E M E G O O D L U C K
-------------------------
S H A U N A M U S T D I E F O R H E R F I F T Y M E G A H E R T S C R E E C H A N D H E R F L I R T A T I O U S N E S S S H E I S S O I M P O S S I B L Y S H A L L O W A N D S T U C K U P
-------------------------
[13 X 13] Cipher solution,with syntax :
SHAUNA - IF YOU WISH TO KNOW MY IDENTITY,YOU WILL
HAVE TO PUT SOME EFFORT IN TO IT.
DO NOT FIDDLE AND FART ABOUT.
HERE IS A CLUE : ASK MISSUS TAYLOR IF SHE
REMEMBERS WHO DRAWS THE SYMBOL.
THEN YOU WILL HAVE ME.
GOOD LUCK.
---------------------------
[7 X 13]+3 Cipher solution,with syntax :
SHAUNA MUST DIE FOR HER MEGAHERT SCREECH,
AND HER FLIRTATIOUSNESS.
SHE IS SO IMPOSSIBLY SHALLOW AND STUCK UP.
---------------------------
Together with the 1990 Celebrity Cipher solution,the technical continuity,and extent of verbiage is,at the very least,compelling.
It is unlikely that,a copycat would have applied himself,to this extent.And indeed,would be with easy access to all the material necessary,from almost twenty years prior,to draw comparisons,in order to fool,both Document Examiners and Cryptography experts.
Speaking as a ''humble'' Mathematician who,nevertheless,has spent many hours on the ciphers of Zodiac,both confirmed and unconfirmed,my personal opinion is that these ciphers are the work of Zodiac.
There never was a ''key for all'',and Zodiac never intended to leave a name that would actually ensnare him.
Often,these glaringly obvious,but disappointing ''facts'' are used as an excuse for others to deride a ''sensible'' and fluent solution presented [?].
Hey-ho.

If there was any hint of sarcasm,in my previous post,there certainly wasn't disappointment,from my part.
If a line is drawn between Newark,New Jersey,and Boston,MA.,the midpoint is almost precisely NEW CANAAN TOWN.
Newark to Logan,Boston,was a scheduled flight that ''one time'' Zodiac victim,Joan Webster took,in November of 1981,and thereafter disappeared,until her body was recovered in April 1990.
There is overwhelming evidence that the Crown Prosecution Service,in Edinburgh,Scotland,are the Law Enforcement agency,that have ''confiscated'' Ms.Webster's case information.....by kind,and legal permission of the FBI.
This,in relation to the ''current'' murder re-investigation of Dr.Brenda Page,who was murdered in July of 1978,in Aberdeen,Scotland.

Coming soon to this site....
The solution to ''Z 263 '' - The cipher ''almost'' completely solved,by the F.B.I.
The solution,contained in the 1988 New Canaan Letter,posed the question that the solver should : ''....ask Mrs.Taylor if she remembers who draws the symbol,then you will have me...''.
The New Canaan Letter cipher is formatted as 20 lines of 13 symbols,plus 3 extra symbols.This constitutes 263 total characters.
As I guessed,the cipher is actually 21 lines of 13 symbols....but with the remaining 10 symbols left as blank.Hence,in reality,a ''273'' cipher.
The 10 blank symbols,constitute the solution to the riddle,that [presumed] Zodiac,posed.
It is solved !
I will post the solution,soon.
Anyone,interested enough,might want to watch the ''Film for TV'',''I dream of Jeannie...Fifteen years on.''.
This film was produced by NBC,for its television premiere,March 30th 1986.

When,in April 2015,Zodiac site manager,Mike Morford,received a,so far,''unconfirmed'' Zodiac letter,he was to find that it contained a cipher of ''apparently'' 263 characters.
This letter has become known as ''The 1988 New Canaan Letter'',attributed to a town,half way between New York and Boston,and the recorded year of its writing.
The cipher contained,was set out,in a grid format of 20 lines and 13 columns.In addition,a 21st line of 3 characters,and effectively,an incomplete line with 10 ''positions'' left blank.
When the F.B.I. solved the cipher,they found it to be homophonic,in nature,with a solution that stated the following :
''Shauna if you wish to know my identity you will have to put some effort into it do not fiddle and fart around - here is a clue ask missus Taylor if she remembers who draws the symbol then you will have me good luck.Shauna must die for her fifty megahert screech and her flirtatiouiness she is so impossibly shallow and stuck up.''.
From the content of the solution,and the ''unfinished'' 21st line of the cipher,it appears that ''Zodiac'' is inviting the reader/solver to complete the cipher and its solution,with the clue offered,regarding ''Mrs.Taylor'',and if she remembers who draws the symbol.
This,if ''we'' buy into the idea that ''Zodiac'' is offering us a chance at revealing his identity.And,in so doing,complete the cipher as one of ''273'' characters.
---------------------------------
In analysing popular cultural events,at that time,I eventually came across a ''Mrs.Taylor'',among other ''Mrs.Taylors'',that might fit the clue.
On March 30th 1986,NBC put together a film,based on the ''capers'' of the genie called ''Jeannie'',which had had huge popular following in the 60's and 70's.
The film was called ''I dream of Jeannie....Fifteen years on.''.It was aimed at a projected large viewing audience,for Easter Sunday of the year.
Among the cast,was actress Barbara Eden,playing the genie,''Jeannie''.In addition,the actor Wayne Rogers,playing an astronaut,and her husband,Tony Nelson.Also,a fellow astronaut,Nelly Hunt,played by actress Lee Taylor;sometimes known as Lee Taylor-Allan.
Its difficult to really analyse such a ''light hearted'' story,but it does seem that ''Mrs.Taylor'' would have known,that it was Mrs.Nelson [Jeannie],that drew the symbol,in the shape of a pendant,that saved her and Tony Nelson from an asteroid,as they piloted a space shuttle,thousands of miles above the earth's atmosphere.
---------------------------------
And so to the solution,for 10 cipher text characters,which,as in keeping with the homophonic substitution employed,reveals also,their 10 plain text characters :
R E D P I M W T O Z
G E N I T H E O N E
In effect,as ''Zodiac'' proffers to concede,of himself, ''Red Phantom,Imperial Wizard to Zodiac''....as in a radio message....or,indeed,revealing his identity,by three monikers,that he has employed.
And,that this ''cipher text'' of 10 characters,solves into the solution,to which Mrs.Taylor remembers : '' Geni,the one.''.In effect,Mrs.Eden [!].
There is more to this,that I ''personally'' know,but am unable to reveal.
But,further linking ''evidence'',follows.....

Fred Manalli was a creative writing teacher.Following is death,in a road accident,aged 41,in 1976,images of Santa Rosa Hitchhiker murder victim,Kim Allen,were found in his possession.
In addition to a charge of ''inappropriate'' sexual advances towards a 16 year old babysitter,for which he was never actually prosecuted,Mr.Manalli has assumed,in death,the title of a ''possible'' Zodiac suspect.
On August 27th 1976,and two days following Mr.Manalli's fatal accident,the following message appeared in the Personal section,of the San Francisco Chronicle :
''Zodiac,your partner is in Deep Real Estate.You're next.The Imperial Wizard can save you.Surrender to him or I'll terminate your case.R.A.''.
This message has been the subject of contested interpretation,among the Zodiac community,ever since.
The message is thought to be inspired by Manalli's death.
There is a reference to ''Real Estate'',which may actually be to do with being buried.i.e ''Deceased''.
''Imperial Wizard'' is hierarchical title,well known,in the Klu Klux Klan.
A few points,then,to consider :
Did the message,have any actual link to Fred Manalli ?
Was there actually ''Real Estate'' or ''KKK'' links involved ?
Who paid for the Personal message ? Who authored the message ?
There is a general feeling,that Zodiac,himself,was the author...and,that he was either implicating Manalli...or,someone else,in cohorts with nefarious activity.
And so,in returning to ''Red Phantom,Imperial Wizard to Zodiac'',as a probable solution to the remaining cipher text,of what is really ''Z 273'',does this solution add credulity to the authenticity of the 1988 New Canaan Letter,itself ?
Much of that letter was,in content,a ''rehash'' of old Zodiac ideas.Almost appearing as ''self parody''.
What do Law Enforcement actually know about the letter ? For all any dissenters of its authenticity,there may already be forensics evidence that links it to Zodiac.
Red Phantom,Imperial Wizard,the Zodiac...were all.....back [?].

The unforced error,that makes ALL the difference : ----------------------------------------------------
The 1988 New Canaan Letters,are two in quantity.
The first letter,starts : ''Dear ------ This is the Zodiac speaking I wish you a happy Christmas.''
The second letter,starts : ''Dear ------ This is the Zodiac speaking I am back with you.''
Judging from these two forms of address,and the respective similar sizes of redaction,it is clear that ''Zodiac'' is addressing the same person.
Who is this person ?
The cipher referred to the two letters,is called ''Z263'',and is in effect,split between the two letters.
The first letter contains 13 lines,of 13 columns [13X13=169]
The second letter contains 8 lines,of 13 columns [8 X13=104].But,the final 10 positions,have been left blank.
Hence,by ''fulfilling'' the remaining 10 positions,I was able to conclude that the solution to the riddle,that Zodiac asked was ''REDPIMWTOZ'',with its own solution,in plaintext,as ''GENITHEONE''.
As one complete cipher,the ''Z263'' constitutes 21 lines.
Line 17,as a solution,reads : ''ANDHEGFLIRTAT''.But it should read : ''ANDHERFLIRTAT''.
In effect,''HEG'' instead of ''HER''.
This is because Zodiac has positioned the letter ''R'' in the cipher text,instead of ''R,reversed''.
But,nevertheless,Zodiac ''retains'' the error.
Now,as a consequence,if we read the plain text solution,down the sixth column,between lines 14th and 20th,we see the following :
A R T G E O W
''A R T G E O W'' is short for ARThur GEOrge Webster.
Arthur George Webster,is the full birth name of George Webster,father of murder victim,Joan Webster.
Were the two 1988 Canaan Letters,addressed to ''George'' ?
Did these letters,represent persecution of George Webster,and by the ''real'' Zodiac ?
It certainly looks likely.

With reference to the ''Z263''cipher solution :
''SHAUNA'',as referred twice in the solution to ''Z263''.''SHAUNA'' has Irish origins.''SHAUNA'' means ''God is gracious''
''JEANNIE'',as referred in the riddle solution to ''Z263''.''JEANNIE'' has Scottish origins.''JEANNIE'' means ''God is gracious''
''JOAN'',as referred in the murder of JOAN WEBSTER.''JOAN'' has Hebrew origins.''JOAN'' means ''God is gracious''

As a correction to the birth name of Zodiac outlier victim , Joan Webster's father's ....it was George Armstrong Webster .
George Armstrong Webster died two years ago , never having found justice for his daughter Joan's murder .
So , the case could be made that , the presumed message in a column of Z263 , is '' Art George Webster ? ''.
The implication being that the Zodiac was at least one sender of messages to George Webster , in the light of his daughter's disappearance . And further , that the 1988 New Canaan Letters are examples of those messages , that were sent by the Zodiac .
In effect , '' Dear George '' letters .
( Refer : '' Bearded Man '' thread , in the '' Zodiac and Beyond '' section , at this site .)

To read into George Webster's background a little more, he was brought up, of wealthy stock, at Stamford where, the two April 1988 New Canaan Letters were posted. This Connecticut town is just three miles along the coast from Greenwich, home to a world-famous choral society. George Webster's tertiary education was spent, 50 miles away, at the world-famous university, Yale where, he studied business and excelled as a polo player.
So, what of the actual addressee in New Canaan where, the two April 1988 letters were mailed to, within 11 days of each other ( 13th & 24th ) ?
Well, the FBI aren't telling and don't look likely to. Although there is some sort of claim of a 17 year-old girl. It does seem to me that, despite these two letters being '' Dear George '' letters, that the Zodiac ( ? ) would wish someone responsible to receive them, and hand them over to local police, at the least. And, that the letters would cause embarrassment would be a bonus for the Zodiac, always looking at ways to maximize the impact of his small-time extortion.
It is certainly possible that they may have been directed, initially, at a friend of George's - perhaps even a mistress.
Eve Carson, sister-in-law to Joan Webster, was asked about whether her late father-in-law, George, had mistresses. She replied quite candidly, that she never knew of names, but that George was certainly a '' player '' ( ...of the field, one presumes..).
One thing for certain - when the FBI fed these 1988 New Canaan letters to Mike Morford, in circa March 2015 ( ? ), they knew much more about the letters than they were letting on. What I have found consistently is, that the FBI feed or leak Zodiac information, not out of the goodness of their hearts, which tend to be made out of stone anyway.....but feed or leak, in order to hopefully acquire extra information back, that they either feel or know that they are missing.
And, so you have it '' FBI '' - It was '' Jeannie '' the Genie, who drew the symbol, which was an ingot, in order that her husband, an astronaut called Colonel Tony Nelson - played by actor Wayne Rogers was able to avoid collision with an asteroid in space. The actress Lee Taylor-Allan played his co-pilot and, within the context of the plot, would have known this ( Missus Taylor ).
'' Then you shall have me '' ? - Wayne Rogers ?
R E D P I M W T O Z = G E N I T H E O N E ...is the technical solution to the riddle and, completes the whole cipher as a '' 21 rows of 17 columns '' grid layout. Simply homophonic substitution of the remaining 10 characters, in order to '' square up '' the cipher, as a Z273.
'' Red Phantom, Imperial Wizard to Zodiac '' - as if a radio message.

Mmmm...Wayne Rogers ? Not the actual Hollywood actor, of course....but could be that Wayne and Rogers hold significance to the identity of the Zodiac. Colonel Tony Nelson in the '' I dream of Jeannie '' TV series, had been played by actor Larry Hagman, in the past. Better known later as '' JR '' in the hit TV series '' Dallas ''.
It is known that George Webster, father of Zodiac outlier victim Joan, was extorted by a number of individuals, in the wake of his daughter's disappearance from Boston's Logan Airport, in November 1981. Not least, because George was offering large amounts of reward money. What does seem persuading now is, that '' concerned citizen '' a.k.a. The Zodiac, extorted George in January 1982, using the moniker '' S C '', and sending a correspondence, now referred to as The Santa Claus postcard.
The Zodiac's '' concerned citizen '' materialised in August 1969, offering cipher keys to solve the Zodiac's 408 cipher. Then morphing into '' S C '' ( Santa Claus ) to extort George Webster, in January 1982, by virtue of the same typewriter employed. Then, extorting George Webster again in April 1988 ? - but this time, returning to the name '' The Zodiac '', in light of the success of Robert Graysmith's '' Zodiac '' bestselling book, published two years prior.

The New Canaan cipher solution's riddle, expressed succinctly :
'' Here is a clue as(k) Missus Taylor if she remembers who draws the symbol then you will have me Good Luck ''
Missus Taylor ? Actress Lee Taylor-Allan
Who draws the symbol ? Actress Barbara Eden ( with an ingot drawn )
Then you will have me ( ? ) Actor Wayne Rogers - co-pilot of Lee Taylor-Allan and husband of Barbara Eden
( Yes, the Zodiac had a thing about middle names . '' Taylor ''( Missus ) in between '' Lee and Allan '' ( Leigh Allen ? ) )
Look at '' Edgar Allan Poe '' who, was more than likely being referred to, into the mid-1990's by the Zodiac :
Edgar ? J Edgar Hoover Allan ? Arthur Leigh Allen Poe ? PO8 - the pseudonym employed by the Highwayman Charles Boles ( Black Bart ), when leaving poetry behind ( PO8 = Poet ).
Seemingly, no end to the Zodiac's wordplay, when it came to names.
'' Wayne Rogers '' ( 1988 - Z273 Riddle ), and '' Noble Pleasure '' ( 1990 - Z65 Solution ) - YOU KNOW PERFECTLY WELL, FBI AND CA DOJ SPECIAL AGENTS, TO WHOM THE ZODIAC WAS REFERRING. ( As I know )

'' I dream of Jeannie...15 years later '' premiered on NBC TV on October 20th 1985.
Cast :
Barbara Eden - Jeannie Wayne Rogers - Colonel Anthony Nelson Lee Taylor-Allan - Nelly Hunt
( October 20th 1985 minus 15 years ? Equals October 20th 1970 .Just around the time that the Zodiac would have been preparing his Halloween Card for Paul Avery.)

The complete cipher offered by the author of the two 1988 New Canaan letters, is in effect, a Z263, split into two ciphers, with one of each part offered with each letter mailed.
The 13 X 13 part cipher starts with the cipher text : F M G Y O S (...which translates to S H A U N A in the plaintext solution...)
And :
The 7 X 13 ( plus 3 ) part starts with the cipher text : F M G Y O S ( ...which translates to S H A U N A in the plaintext solution...)
So :
Both cipher parts start with the cipher text : F M G Y O S
Any clues there ( ? ), in subliminal suggestions with F M G Y O S.
One, in particular. could be '' Frequency Modulation guy, oscillating .'' In effect, '' Zodiac '' or the persona he wishes to be perceived as imparting, is doing so in the medium of '' Radio ''.
Definitions :
Frequency Modulation - means of encoding the audio signal of a radio wave. Frequency Modulation operates in the 88 - 108 Megahertz band of radio waves ( SHAUNA MUST DIE FOR HER MEGAHERTZ SCREECH ).
Oscillation - term which characterizes amplitude, period, frequency and wavelength of sound.
In the letters mailed, the presumed Zodiac states :
'' I will give you no clews too my name, except the following cipher : ''
Then... the reader is presented with '' F M G Y O S '' which, starts both parts of a Z263 split into two. '' Frequency Modulation guy oscillating '' ?
This tends to point towards credibility in the cipher text solution to a projected 10 Ciphertext symbols required to complete the whole cipher as a '' squared off '' Z273 - in effect a cipher of 21 Rows and 13 Columns. Particularly, as available symbols already employed, can be displayed as :
R E D P I M W T O Z....which can be interpreted as a parody radio message : '' Red Phantom, Imperial Wizard to Zodiac ''
R E D P I M W T O Z ? - Indeed '' constructed '', but with what the Zodiac already avails the potential solver - AND, most important, lends credulity to the overall clue of the TV film '' I dream of Jeannie...15 years later '', sheading light on a solution to the riddle that is offered. ( ASK MISSUS TAYLOR IF SHE REMEMBERS WHO DRAWS THE SYMBOL )
R E D P I M W T O Z = G E N I T H E O N E .....Jeannie ( Barbara Eden ) is the one who draws the symbol ( an ingot ), for whom Missus Taylor ( Lee Taylor-Allan, formerly Lee Taylor ) is aware.
Hence : '' Frequency Modulation guy oscillating : ' Red Phantom, Imperial Wizard to Zodiac ' ''
The REAL Zodiac having his fun ? For, what he leaves the riddle solver with, is Colonel Tony Nelson, played by actor Wayne Rogers.
'' Middle names '', again ? Eh, Turkey ?

Indeed - cards on the table, with my previous post.
Looks like yet another blame-palming exercise, by the real Zodiac, on ex-Radio Op. William Joseph Grant. The 1988 New Canaan letters were, as I maintain, acts of persecution of George Webster, father of Zodiac outlier victim Joan. Joan's body was finally discovered in woodland near Manchester-by-the-sea, MA, in April 1990 - two years following the construction of the New Canaan letters. William Joseph Grant's home town of upbringing was Manchester-by-the-sea, MA.
But, the riddle is appearing to be offering the solver '' something '' of the real Zodiac's true identity. ( '' Here is a clue - ask Mrs.Taylor if she remembers who draws the symbol - then you will have me. Good Luck.'' )
'' Wayne Rogers '' ?

Readers will have noted that the recent post at the official Riverside Police Department website linked to the murder of Cheri Jo Bates, emerged sometime around the 2nd or 3rd of August 2021.
This post by them, albeit perceived ambiguous wording, casts doubt on the Zodiac authenticity of three spartan handwritten letters of extortion mailed in April 1967 - and, six months following the actual murder of Cheri Jo Bates, October 30th/31st 1966 ( Bates had to die, there will be more ).
Perhaps of greatest note is, that doubt is now cast ( though by no means confirmed ), on the man who became the Zodiac, extorting Joseph Bates, father of victim Cheri Jo. Up to now, and coupled with the so-called Confession Letter ( typed in upper-case ), a sense taken was that the Zodiac might stoop so low as to persecute the father of a murder victim, after his tragic loss ( Joseph ).
A strange coincidence ( ? ) is, that since July 24th and at least one week before the official Riverside P.D. post, I had been making various internet posts, including at this site, with a firm conviction that the Zodiac was extorting George Webster, father of murder victim Joan, from circa January 1982 ( as '' S C '' ), through to April 1988, with the two New Canaan Letters ( as '' The Zodiac '' ). Joan Webster's body was finally discovered in woodland, near Manchester-by-the-sea, MA, in April 1990 - and, two years after the mailing of the New Canaan Letters.
Presently, I will post again at this site, with my July 2021 George Webster-related posts, in more detail.
But, one does have to wonder ( ? ) if law enforcement collectively, and as part of an overall strategy, wish to dissuade the public that the extortion of '' fathers of murder-victim daughters '' was part of the Zodiac's arsenal of extortion weaponry.
More specifically though, to cast doubt on George Webster, also, as a victim of the Zodiac's extortion ( ? ), which included the April 1988 New Canaan Letters.
Just in the last 24 hours, news that Eve Carson, sister-in-law to Joan Webster, has finally revealed to whom she is receiving extra case information about Joan. This, she had felt unable to reveal, for the last three years prior. It is A.D.A. John Dawley, first assistant District Attorney to the MA DOJ who, I would suggest, are an example of another Department of Justice, along with the CA DOJ, the US DOJ and Crown Office, U.K., that have become involved in the case of the Zodiac Killer.
