Description

United States appointment, dated March 8, 1871, signed by Ulysses S. Grant (1822-1885), 18th President of the United States (1869-1877). The document appoints David A. Hall to be "Third Lieutenant" at the Revenue Service of the United States." Signed in black fountain pen by "U. S. Grant" as President of the United States and "George Boutwell" as Secretary of the Treasury. The document (16 x 12 inches), which is affixed to a thick backing, displays moderate toning and scattered spots of discoloration. Poor condition overall. Full LOA from James Spence/JSA. The size/weight of this item requires that there will be an additional shipping charge for this lot.
