Partly-Printed Autograph Document Signed by BECKWITH, Mary Lincoln "Peggy" (1898-1975)

The penultimate last living Abraham Lincoln descendant was this great-granddaughter of President Lincoln, the daughter of Robert Todd Lincoln's daughter Jessie; she was an amateur artist and a recluse who rarely strayed out in public. Partly-printed ADS, 1p, 2¼" X 2 3/4", Manchester Center, Vermont, 1936 January 15. Near fine. Personal check printed on a pale orange background and drawn on The Factory Point National Bank (where her parents and grandparents also banked for many years), filled out entirely in her hand in blue fountain pen for $545.00, made out to the Factory Point National Bank and signed large and bold at lower right. Usual cancellation perforations, not affecting handwriting. Mary Beckwith autograph material is quite scarce in any form whatsoever.
