Bail Bond Recogizance Release 1799 Document Antique - $389 - (Tahlequah, OK)

Antique Bail Bond, dated May 20th, 1799. Recognizance bond for John Elseworth for trespassing on the base in New York. This document was originally folded, so there is a crease down the middle, with writing on both sides. It has been displayed as an open document in a frame, behind glass for the last 15 years. The creases have torn one inch from the top and bottom.  Really unique and rare document. The letterpress portion can be felt through the back of the paper.  To secure the integrity of the document, it will be shipped in the frame. It is fragile, but intact and can be minimally handled without worry of further tears to the crease.
