The title, "THE BLACK VAULT," is written in a stylized, white font with a blue glow, superimposed over a dark background. To the left of the text is a graphic resembling a vault door, rendered in gray and blue tones, with intricate mechanical details like gears and a central dial. The text below the title explains that the document originates from "The Black Vault," an online database of declassified government documents, specifically mentioning the "MKULTRA/Mind Control Collection" housing over 20,000 pages declassified by the CIA. A prominent yellow hyperlink directs the viewer to "http://mkultra.theblackvault.com." There are no photographs, handwritten notes, official stamps, forms, diagrams, tables, redactions, or visual evidence of experimental procedures on this page. The page is a typed memorandum dated August 20, 1951, concerning a project code-named "Bluebird," which is to be re-designated "Artichoke." There is a list of recipients under "MEMORANDUM FOR:" including "Mr.," "Lt. Col.," and multiple "Lt." and "Mr." entries, some of which are obscured by smudges. Additional handwritten annotations appear in the upper right corner, including a circled "121" and the letter "S", and at the bottom right, with the words "Corded" and "Jolly =17.0" next to a circular mark. The document is marked with faint, illegible stamps or markings throughout.
