1878 Cyrus W. Field Signed Check

CYRUS W. FIELD, Famous American Industrialist and Inventor.
September 11, 1878, Partially Printed Document Signed, "Cyrus W. Field," measuring 2.75" x 7," Choice Extremely Fine. This is a check drawn on the National City Bank of New York, in the amount of $20, payable to Drs. Jenkins & Swift, and signed by Cyrus Field. The blue 2¢ revenue at the right end is canceled with an oval teller stamp. One wonders whether Jenkins & Swift were physicians to Cyrus Field. Canceled with a circular hole and a cross shape cut cancel, neither of which affect the 2.75" long signature. From the Henry E. Luhrs Collection, with some light pencil notations in the lower right corner indicating where and when this check was obtained.
