This antique letter from John Seager of Prince Line Newcastle-on-Tyne discusses the assassination of President McKinley and is a must-have for any collector of rare ephemera. This document is a unique piece of American history, created during a time of great political change and tension in the country, just after the assassination of President McKinley. All ephemera has wear commensurate to age, including, potentially: nicks, folds, smudges, rips at edges, stains, old smells, minor rips at folds, small holes, and other imperfections. You get what you see. Our research notes indicate our best efforts but are not guaranteed to be 100% accurate. Lots of tiny holes on the edge of the paper, almost looks like it was, at one time, bound. There is a heavy crease.
