[PRESIDENTS]. GARFIELD, JAMES A. Bold signature ("James A. Garfield"), probably as President, dated in another hand "3/14/81," one page, a small oblong, clipped from a document. Because Garfield here employs the fuller form of signature he habitually reserved for Presidentially signed documents ("J.A. Garfield" was his usual form of signature) and in light of the early collector's pencilled date, this signature almost certainly dates from Garfield's very brief term in the White House. Garfield's Presidential signatures are quite rare. -- CHESTER A. ARTHUR. Bold full signature, probably as President, dated in another hand "7/27/82," pne page, a small oblong, clipped from a document; neatly mounted with the above on an album leaf. (2)
