“Japanese representative signs surrender documents aboard the Missouri, Tokyo Bay, Sept. 2, 1945.”

From S/Sgt Charles Restifo’s Autobiography (page 119):

We made about four thousand prints of the signing ceremony. About one hundred eight by ten prints went to General MacArthur who auto­graphed them and distributed them himself. The rest were given to per­sonnel authorized by the General’s Staff or the Chiefs of Staff.
