The Snort Shorter Project Limited Exhibition

On display will be an extraordinary collection of short snorters—paper currency taped together and signed by service members and leaders as mementos of shared experiences—many bearing the signatures of some of the most influential figures of the Second World War.

Among the highlights is the short snorter of Major General Clayton Lawrence Bissell, USAAF. Measuring approximately 64 feet long, the Bissell short snorter is composed of 140 WWII-era banknotes and features at least 375 signatures from Allied admirals, generals, field marshals, air marshals, presidents, prime ministers, ambassadors, and ministers.

Also featured is the short snorter belonging to Sgt. Mickey McKeogh, the personal orderly to General Dwight D. Eisenhower throughout the duration of World War II. This artifact is signed by many of the high-ranking dignitaries Eisenhower encountered during the war, offering a tangible connection to the Allied command structure.
