Signers of the Declaration of Independence from New Jersey. Manuscript DS, signed “John Hart” and “Abra. Clark,” one page, 7.5 x 5.5, March 2, 1776. Document addressed to the Treasurers of the Provincial Congress reads in full, "This is to certify that Caleb Camp hath attented as a Deputy in Provintial Congress in New Jersey, sixty days in this and a siting at Trenton in October last for which he is intitiuled [sic] to receive Nineteen pounds twelve shillings proclamation." Document is also signed on the reverse by Silas Condict, and also docketed by Camp. the document has been professionally silked on the reverse and is in very good condition, with a small area of paper loss to top right affecting a single word of text, a bit of mild ink erosion to paraph of Clark’s signature, mild toning, scattered light soiling, and light show-through from docketing on reverse.
A true rarity, this official Provincial Congress document bears the most important year in American history as well as the signatures of two signers of the Declaration of Independence. Virtually no other items of this essential date signed by Hart have been sold at major public auctions in the last 25 years, and only this and one other Clark 1776 document have ever sold. Ex-Sang collection.
