American Revolution

---

1770’s Printed Form, “Weekly Return” of Regimental Companies of Foot, Choice Very Fine.
8” x 2.5”. Scattered toning, with a toning streak on the left side. Closely trimmed along the top edge, but still clear of the ornamented border. This is a rare, printed form used by Company Captains in the American Army to report to their Regimental commanders the status of and changes in their units. Included are blank areas for the numbers of the Company and Regiment, the name of the Company Captain, and various categories, including “Dead,” “Discharged,” “Deserted,” and others. A very rare and seldom-encountered document straight from the front lines of the Revolutionary War!
