DS as president, one page both sides, 10.5 x 14, February 20, 1970. President Nixon signs extradition papers approving Canada’s surrender of “Dennis Neil Lynes to the proper authorities of the State of California.” A full white paper presidential seal is affixed to the left side. Stapled into a folder with a Canadian Department of Justice document dated January 27, 1970, regarding the transfer of custody and stating the alleged crime as “robbery.” Stapled to a transparent cover sheet is a typed information sheet stating that these are the last presidentially-signed extradition papers, as the duty was relegated to the secretary of state via an executive order issued on March 19, 1970. In fine condition, with a central horizontal fold and staples to the top, which fasten the document in a manner that prevents the first page from being read. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
