Item Details
Description
James Monroe Signed Military Land Grant (1818). We are proud to present an extraordinary piece of American history, an original US Government Military Land Grant document signed by 5th U.S. President, James Monroe, in the year 1818. This impressive document commemorates a significant episode in the nation's expansion as it illustrates the government's commitment to reward veterans with substantial land grants. The document recognizes the dedicated service of Sergeant Samuel Mixer of Burbank's Company in the Fifth Regiment of Infantry and elucidates his entitlement to 160 acres of land as a token of gratitude for his bravery and patriotism. The grant beautifully preserves Monroe's clear and unambiguous signature, affixed with a flourish, which authenticates the document. The president's script adorns the bottom half, adding substantial historical weight to this unique artifact. The document is incredibly well-preserved, considering it is over 200 years old. It has been professionally treated to maintain its integrity and ensure its longevity. The paper displays a classical off-white color with age-related toning and minor typical foxing that in no way detracts from its visual appeal or historical significance, but instead adds a certain charm that only age can bestow. Accompanying this document is a high-quality custom exhibition frame. This frame exemplifies museum-quality presentation, meticulously curated to protect, and complement this important document. The document, matted in acid-free material, floats against a conservation-grade felt background providing stark contrast to highlight the details of the antique parchment. The frame is protected with UV resistant plexiglass to prolong the longevity of the document against potential light damage. This is an extraordinary opportunity for collectors of presidential memorabilia, historical artifacts, or anyone with a keen interest in the evolving tale of America's past. Don't miss the chance to own an authentic piece of history signed by one of the nation's formative leaders, James Monroe. This item comes with a letter of authenticity from a reputable third-party autograph authentication company, confirming that the signature is genuine.
