Scarce Westminster Bank check, 8 x 3.25, filled out and signed by Conrad, "J. Conrad," payable to Messrs Philpot & Son for £1.14.6, July 29, 1924. A notation to the upper left reads, "Drawer deceased." In fine condition, with minor loss to the lower right corner tip. Accompanied by a small typed note stating that this was the last check Conrad wrote. He passed away just five days later on August 3, 1924, at his house in Bishopsbourne, Kent, England.
From the personal collection of a lifelong collector, teacher, and traveler with a passion for world history. His collecting years ranged from the 1970s to the present day, meaning that several of the premier pieces have not been on the market in decades.
