About This Item
When Governor Shelby Cullom resigned in 1883 to take a seat in the U.S. Senate, his lieutenant governor -- an attorney and state legislator -- became the Prairie State's 18th governor and filled the remainder of Cullom's term, serving until 1885. Partly-printed DS, 1p, 14" X 11", Springfield, IL, 1883 May 10. Very good. Light original folds (neither weakened nor brittle). mounting traces on verso of right edge, but no show-through. Finely engraved certificate, with the usual decorative border and mix of ornate Victorian typefaces, naming Philip E. Mann, a Chicago attorney, a notary public. Signed large and bold by Hamilton at lower right. Circular blind-embossed Illinois state seal at lower left. Quite attractive.
