This 23x18 presidential appointment is dated June 25, 1869 and signed in black fountain pen by Ulysses S. Grant. The document arrives in four pieces, which could be put back together if desired and still has the white presidential seal in tact. The signature is a high-end example with no folds on any part of it and only a slight smudge on the period in "S" keeping it from perfection. The docment itself has several tears around the edges and moderate toning in a few spots, but could be put back together and mounted for a nice display. The signature is authenticated by PSA/DNA with a full LOA.
