Treasury Secretaries Walker & Meredith Signature
<B>Treasury Secretaries Robert Walker and William Meredith Signatures.</B></I> An interesting lot consisting of consecutive United States Treasury secretaries signatures mounted with fractional currency which used their portraits. In order the lot includes a clipped signature of Robert John Walker, Treasury Secretary under President Polk, 5” x 1.5”, signed “<I>Very respectfully R. Walker Secretary of the Treasury</B></I>”, mounted with a .25 cent fractional note bearing Walker's portrait. Both are mounted on the verso of a 9.5” x 12” typed biographical chronology of Walker's life. Presented in an identical fashion is clipped signature of William Morris Meredith, Treasury Secretary under President Taylor, 3.5” x 1.5”, signed “<I>W. M. Meredith Secretary of the Treasury</B></I>”, mounted with a single .10 cent fractional note bearing his portrait. Though mounting hinges have been used to affix the items to the biographical sheets, the former owner had the presence of mind to place protective plastic sheet over each item to protect it from harm. The backing sheets have been folded; else all important items are in very good condition. <BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Flat Material, Small (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
