Partly-printed DS as president, one page, 15.25 x 9.75, April 20, 1861. President Lincoln appoints Cornelius A. Walborn as "Deputy Postmaster at Philadelphia, in the State of Pennsylvania." Boldly signed at the conclusion by President Lincoln and countersigned by Secretary of State William H. Seward. In very good condition, with tack holes to corners, short tears along edges, a few old bits of tape, and light irregular toning; Lincoln's signature nonetheless remains an exquisite, bold example.
