Partly-printed DS as president, one page, 13.5 x 17, April 1, 1862. President Lincoln appoints William T. Plant “an Assistant Surgeon in the Navy.” Signed at the conclusion by Lincoln, and countersigned by Secretary of the Navy Gideon Welles. Matted and framed to an overall size of 21.25 x 24.5. In good condition, with central horizontal tear repaired on reverse, scattered toning, soiling, and dampstaining, some lightly affecting signature, intersecting folds, one through a single letter of signature, and Lincoln’s signature a shade or two light. The white wafer seal is toned and worn, but intact. Lincoln naval appointments are particularly popular, and those involving surgeons decidedly more so.
