This is a multi-part puzzle concerning the Zodiac Killer "Pines" card sent to the San Francisco Chronicle on March 22, 1971. I will ask it as a series of questions and hints, as I think it's too hard to solve the puzzle without them. The overall puzzle is "is the name of Edward Wayne Edwards in the card". Additional information: his birth name was Charles.
The first puzzle, is something easy, almost trivial, although even then, I have seen people stumped! Can you spot the "X"?
Second puzzle: can you see three monkeys? What noise do monkeys make?
Third puzzle: can you spot a wain?
Now a hint :
Consider the pasted strings to be flags or pointers and the pole star.
Another hint:
What is another name for the "Big Dipper"?
Finally, how does the card encode Edwards' name?
Good luck! I hope this is not too hard, but not quite trivial either. I didn't make this puzzle up, rather I got the solution from a woman who says she was forced to make the card in 1971, and it was explained to her.
