Description

Declaration of Independence: Robert Morris

Signer of the Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation, and the Constitution (1734–1806). Two partly-printed documents, both signed, “Robt. Morris,” both 12.5 x 10, and dated March 10, 1975. Two stock certificates issued to Sylvanus Bourne, stating he owns a total of 100 shares of the North American Land Company (50 shares per certificate). Both are signed at the conclusion by Morris as the company’s president, and by the company’s secretary James Marshall. Both certificates are bound with a blue ribbon, and a 7.75 x 9.5 document, dated March 12, 1795, and signed “Clement Biddle, Not Pub,” attesting to the two stock certificates. In fine condition, with a horizontal ink cancellation line to each of Morris’s signatures, and some scattered light toning. The paper seal is crisp and intact and only slightly worn. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA.
