Randall pens a verse of his famous song: “Hark to an exiled son's appeal, Maryland! Mother State, to thee I kneel, Maryland! For life and death, for woe and weal, Thy peerless chivalry reveal, And gird thy beauteous limbs with steel, Maryland! My Maryland!” In very good condition, with two horizontal folds, moderate creases and toning to the top, a few scattered stray ink marks, and some show-through from mounting remnants to reverse. RR Auction COA.
