concurring.
I join in the result reached by the majority without subscribing to any more than is necessary for decision. The appellant was charged three years after he presented an alleged forged lottery ticket. The Commonwealth, for whatever reason, could not produce the ticket he allegedly presented. The proof of forgery was not apparent on its face, and a photocopy did not disclose all the intricacies required for an expert opinion. The appellant was entitled to examine and test those intricacies and he could not without the original ticket: more need not be said.
LARSEN, J., joins in this Concurring Opinion.
