Description

Rare Bank of the United States check filled out and signed by Jefferson, paying his cabinetmaker in 1793

Rare Bank of the United States check, 6.5 x 2.5, filled out and signed by Jefferson, "Th: Jefferson," payable to Henry Ingle for $67.03, November 23, 1793. In fine condition, with light toning, and the signature a couple of shades light. Henry Ingle was a cabinetmaker who supplied Thomas Jefferson with both cabinetwork and tools, such as plane blades, sandpaper, chisels, and screws. Jefferson's memorandum books record this check for $67.03 as a payment in full for cabinetwork. A sought-after rarity, this is just the third Jefferson check we have ever offered.
