I was looking through my currency photo file on my computer and came across the note below:

As you can see, it's a Devil's Face Beattie-Rasminsky typed (not engraved) signature, serial A/K 0062873 (which is the correct range for a Be-Ra note, but with the modified portrait.

I've never seen the actual note, I only saw it up for sale on eBay.  According to the JPG file properties, I saved the pic to my computer in October 2006.

Anyone know if there are legitimate examples of Devil's Face notes with the Be-Ra signatures?? 

While it certainly could have been a little Photoshop trickery, I recognize how it is plausible.  It's the recurring concept of a "good-over".  Decent, fully-printed sheets of $1000s were sitting around, so someone grabbed them and put them on the pile with the rest of the sheets.

This is the first time I've heard of such a thing.

No never heard of any.

What does not make sense is the fact Devils face notes were printed up until 1956. Beattie-Rasminsky signature notes were only issued and released into circulation around 1962, long after the Devils notes were retired.

When something is THAT radically different and unexpected, images are not enough.  It needs independent confirmation.  Don't expect any "proof" of the following note surfacing...
