An autograph note, on his own stationery (with his arms as the letterhead), signed in full by William Henry Seward (1801-1872), Governor of New York, United States Senator, and Secretary of State under Lincoln and afterwards (1861-1869). He is now, of course, best remember for arranging the purchase of Alaska (1867) from the Russian Empire for $7.2 million, which seemed like a great deal until Sarah Palin showed up. 18.5 x 11.5 cm.
