Description

Partly-printed DS as president, one page, 23 x 19, December 9, 1926. President Coolidge appoints J. Klahr Huddle as "a Consul of the United States of America at Cologne, Germany, for Cologne…I do hereby pray and request the Government of Germany, its Governors and Officers to permit the said J. Klahr Huddle fully and peaceably to enjoy and exercise the said office." Crisply signed at the conclusion by Coolidge and countersigned by Secretary of State Frank B. Kellogg. The crisply embossed white paper seal affixed to the lower left remains fully intact. In fine condition, with minor creasing to the upper right corner. An especially large, clean, and attractive presidential appointment. A career Foreign Service officer, Huddle would go on to serve as the first US ambassador to Burma from 1947 to 1949.
