King of Castile from 1406 to 1454. LS in Old Spanish, signed “Yo el Rey” (I the King), one page, 8.5 x 5.75, July 31, 1449. The King writes to Juan Perez Ponce de Leon, 2nd Count of Arcos, a member of his Council, that he is sending him news by his trusted envoy, Gonzalo de Saavedra, “who on my behalf will speak with you about some pressing things that he will tell you about which you will read in a draft document I ordered him to send you…I beg and order you, if service and pleasure you wish to render me, that you get this work underway in accordance with all the confidence I have in you.” Intersecting folds, a few small pinholes, light show-through from docketing on reverse, and scattered light toning and foxing, otherwise fine condition.
