Lot 124 Woodrow Wilson

Partly-printed DS, one page, 10.5 x 8, March 2, 1920. Unusual honorable discharge issued to Paul McMichael, a major in the Ordnance Department of the US Army. McMichael's discharge is signed across entire face by over 30 war-related personalities, including Woodrow Wilson, John J. Pershing, Ferdinand Foch, David Beattie, Amando Diaz, Baron Jacques, Secretary of War Newton D Baker, Theodore Roosevelt, Jr. (who adds a capable attempt of his father's signature), William S. Sims, John A. Lejeune, and other veterans of the Great War. Discharge is affixed to an identical size piece of cardstock. In very good condition, with a couple of vertical creases, mild overall toning, a couple rusty paperclip marks to edges, and some light rippling. Accompanied by a facsimile of the piece, slightly enlarged, with numbered identifications of the signers. An unusual and likely one-of-a-kind piece.
