Partly-Printed Autograph Document Signed by RANDOLPH, Jessie Harlan Lincoln (1875-1948)

Abraham Lincoln's granddaughter, the youngest of Robert Todd Lincoln's three children; mother of Mary Lincoln Beckwith and Robert Todd Lincoln Beckwith, the last two direct Lincoln descendants. Partly-printed ADS, 1p, 6¼" X 2 3/4", Washington, DC, 7 January 1936. Near fine. Check printed in pale pink drawn on The Riggs National Bank, made out entirely in Randolph's hand in black fountain pen to "Laurence H. Green, Sec.-Treas." in the amount of $13.75, bearing a bold "J.L. Randolph" at lower right. Usual cancellation stamp and perforations, not affecting signature. Rubberstamp endorsed on verso by The Racquet Club of Washington, DC, which notes Green as secretary-treasurer -- a posh private club for the elite a stone's throw from the White House. A handsome example of this extremely uncommon autograph -- checks written by any Lincoln family members are rarely seen.
