Important American naval commander (1747-1792) during the Revolutionary War, who earned acclaim for his raids against the British while aboard the Bonhomme Richard. Choice ink signature, "Jno. P. Jones,” on an off-white 2 x 1.25 slip, handsomely mounted, double-matted, and framed behind UV-protective acrylic with an engraving of the legendary naval captain to an overall size of 11.25 x 15.75. In fine condition. Jones is exceedingly rare in autographic material of any type—this being just the third we have offered—and this is a particularly neatly penned, beautiful example.
