Endorsed check, 6 x 2.75, filled out and signed in another hand, payable to Salinger for $341.95, November 4, 1974. Endorsed on the reverse in black ink, “J. D. Salinger, For Deposit Only.” Light haloing to writing on front of the check, expected bank stamps, scattered soiling affecting his signature, and some rust staining at the top, otherwise very good condition. The check is from a Claremont, New Hampshire woodsman who logged Salinger’s property in the 1970s and paid Salinger for the wood. A most unusual format for Salinger, only the third we have encountered. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
