Offered in extremely limited quantity – genuine handwriting from President Abraham Lincoln, authenticated and encapsulated by (BAS) Beckett Authentication Services. Each handwritten word was carefully removed from a legal document written by Lincoln in Illinois circa 1842, during his law partnership with Stephen T. Logan.
Each order will include one Lincoln handwriting fragment selected from the dropdown menu. An example of the selection of Lincoln words can be seen in the 2nd photo. Each word in the dropdown menu is an actual word handwritten by Lincoln. You will receive one authentic piece of Lincoln’s penmanship encapsulated by Beckett.
Each encapsulated word was individually removed from an 1842 legal document drafted in Lincoln’s own hand, referencing a note held by Logan and the collection of a debt owed to him.
Genuine Lincoln autograph letters are extremely hard to come by and can fetch tens of thousands of dollars. This encapsulated word offers a rare and affordable opportunity to own an authentic piece of Lincoln’s handwriting.
The cost of authenticating a single word of Lincoln’s handwriting is $500 on Beckett's website.
