Description

Desirable signature of President Garfield's killer

Ink signature "Charles Guiteau," on a lightly-lined 4 x 1 lightly-lined slip cut from a larger document. Accompanied by a 3.5 x 2 off-white calling card signed "James G. Blaine, Maine, May 30/85"; a 7.5 x 4.75 album page signed by George B. Corkhill, who prosecuted Guiteau; a September 26, 1881, memorial sermon booklet from the First Presbyterian Church in Cleveland; and several unsigned images. Guiteau's signature is in very good condition, with mild to moderate creasing, toning, and soiling; the other items rate overall very good to fine condition. Great associative content regarding the presidential assassin! RRAuction COA.
