Typed Document Signed. New York. December 31, 1897. 1 pp. 8" x 13". Legal document giving consent to the to Second Avenue Railroad Company to the New York Trade School signed “J.P. Morgan Jr.” It reads, in part: “The undersigned, the owner of the property known as the New York Trade School, lying on the East side of First Avenue, and extending from sixty-seventh to sixty-eighth Streets, in the City of “New York, hereby consents to the operation of the railroad of the Second Avenue Railroad Company or any portion thereof, by any power, other than locomotive steam power or overhead trolley, which may be approved by the Board of Railroad Commissioners the State of New York. PROVIDED HOWEVER, that this consent shall in no event be deemed to waive, release or affect any claim for damages the undersigned or its assigns may have against the said Company, which may arise or ensue by reason of such substitution and change of power or the operation of the said railroad...” The New York Trade School was originally called the Metropolitan Museum of Art. In 1881 it was renamed the New York Trade School to more precisely reflect its curriculum (after the art education program is moved to a separate school). Five years before this document was signed, Morgan’s father had offered the school a sizeable endowment. Over the next 60 years it gained a reputation as the nation’s leading trade school for American young men and the model upon which other trade schools are founded. With impressed seal and minor age wear to bottom third. Mostly Fine. An interesting Railroad, Art School & Morgan association with a scarce JP Morgan, Jr. signature.
