This is the edition providing President George Washington's Resignation Speech.

I am working with a librarian friend and an archivist to place a value on this document.

I am working on the value with an eye towards sale of the document.

Might anyone have seen something like this pass for sale in the past five years?

Condition: Graded as very good. Some slight yellowing on edges, one portion with a slight hole, folded in half and then in half one more time, stored this way from 1796 forward.

Yes, this is an original document. I received it from my Uncle as a portion of my inheritance. His direction was for me to dispose of, at my leisure, all the silver and all the documents for highest portion possible. He burned the majority of the artwork, some done by some rather famous artists, most by regional names none would now recognize. It was a shame, most of the family history and documents went up in that fire. I guess so goes the old families when there are no remaining direct heirs. I should have loved to have had the houses and the acreage. Sold and placed into estate settlement, to include a large portion of taxes and charitable contributions.
