Marginal note says "45?" so presumably 1947 is a typo, they did make a lot of those in the day before spell checkers.
April 24, 1945 would have been one day before the fall of the Salo Republic. Mussolini had not yet fled Milan, so the meeting would have to have been of the utmost importance.
There are no references I can find to a Villa Mazar in Milan.
William Gowen denied ever seeing this document and indeed the signature is not signed by him but on his behalf by Caniglia.
Lastly, Angleton was a master forger but why forge this document.
