Partly-printed DS, one page, 8.25 x 12.5, January 23, 1783. Ship’s register for “the Schooner Swallow whereof John Stevens is at present Master, being a square stern’d Vessel of the Burthen of fifty tons, or thereabouts, was built at Glastonbury…And that William R. Lee, Esq. & Company at present Owners thereof; and that no Subject of the King of Great-Britain, directly or indirectly hath any share, part, or Interest therein.” Signed under the paper seal by Hancock, and countersigned by John Avery. Simply matted to an overall size of 9.5 x 15. In good condition, with partial separations along intersecting folds, several areas of paper loss, scattered moderate toning and soiling, a couple pencil notations to bottom, and some light mirroring of ink. The paper seal is worn and toned, but intact, and Hancock’s signature is remarkably mostly unaffected by the document’s flaws.
