1817 (30th Oct) lease on large vellum (mammal skin prepared for writing or printing) in the reign of King George III. This is for the lease of property in Middlesex by Henry & Mary Haycraft from James Agutter, a timber merchant. With the rare blue £1 & 15/- revenue stamp with Cypher stamp at back. Complete document with the 2 signatories & their respective wax seals (minor chipping). Scarce & most attractive. Folded & aged as to be expected. A beautiful manuscript item, ideal for framing with a conservative estimate.
