King of Great Britain and Ireland (born 1738) from 1760 until his death in 1820. His reign was marked most notably by the loss of British control over the American colonies. Advancing mental illness rendered George unable to fulfill his official duties during the last decade of his life, during which time the Prince Regent, William IV, ruled in his stead. Manuscript DS, signed “George R,” two pages, 8 x 12.5, May 4, 1771. King George appoints William Axtell as Council of the Province of New York. Signed at the top left by George, and countersigned at the bottom by Lord Hillsborough. Second integral page bears several dockets and endorsements. In fine condition, with some scattered light toning and foxing, previous storage folds, and reinforcement to edges of second page. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
