This antique manuscript is a rare find for collectors. It features a hand-filled form for vehicle registration of a 2-wheeled carriage known as a "gig" in 1814 Washington D.C. The document is signed by James H Blake Jr. (Son of then Mayor James Heighe Blake) and registering the 2 wheeled steel springs carriage to Robert Beverly, with the special attributes of being original and having historical significance. The manuscript is in English language, on paper, and the subject matter focuses on law and government. It is a valuable piece of North American history, suitable for any antique or manuscript collection. Would also be a funny piece to frame for a d.c. person who is prone to getting tickets!
