Frontiersman, politician and folk hero, he became famous for his shrewd and humorous speeches; he was killed at the Alamo. Rare ink signature, “David Crockett,” on an off-white 4 x 1.75 slip, clipped from the closing of a letter in an unidentified hand. In very good condition, with tape reinforcement/repair on reverse to complete separation along a horizontal fold above the signature, two light vertical folds (one through a single letter of the signature), small mounting remnants to edges on the reverse, mild irregular toning, and some stray ink marks (a couple lightly passing through portions of the signature). Removably matted—with only the signature portion visible—measuring approximately 2.75 x .75‚ with a nice engraving to an overall size of 6.25 x 9. A most desirable, and difficult-to-acquire signature, as we have offered less than half a dozen over the past 30 years.
