Bank check, 8.25 x 3, filled out in another hand and signed by Wright, payable to his sister Katharine Wright for $400.00, September 19, 1921. Cloth matted and framed (so Katharine’s endorsement signature may also be viewed), with two plaques and two photos, to an overall size of 20 x 18.5. In fine condition, with cancellation holes to body, and a small pencil cancellation next to amount, with nothing affecting the clean signature area. Born on Orville's third birthday, Katharine Wright (1874-1929) was the youngest of the family. She was deeply involved in the Wright Company, her brothers' airplane manufacturing business. When Wilbur died in 1912, she became an officer in the company whose stock certificates were signed by both Orville and Katharine.
