Partly-printed vellum DS as president, one page, 11.5 x 15, no date. Unissued scallop-topped ship’s pass, signed at the bottom by Jackson, and countersigned by Secretary of State John Forsyth. The red paper seal has been removed. Matted and framed to an overall size of 18 x 22, with the reverse of frame bearing an affixed Goodspeed’s Book Shop label. In very good to fine condition, with some light staining, the wafer seal absent, and the end of Jackson's signature partially missing. Unissued presidentially signed documents are quite scarce, with this example all the more desirable given its attractive maritime vignette.
