Our Item#: 92050
Original autograph letter (ALS) from Maximilian Joseph, prince-elector of Bavaria (as Maximilian IV Joseph) 1799 to 1806 and then 1st King of Bavaria (after Napoleon and then Metternich with the Council of Vienna shuffled things up a bit)as Maximilian I Joseph from 1806 to 1825. A fantastic companion piece for the Bavarian philatelist, or for the collector of the House of Wittelsbach. Their palace can still be toured in the heart of Munich, and is certainly worth a visit. Then stop by the Franziskaner across the square afterwords for Kartoffelsuppe and fresh Hefeweizen. Slightly worn, folded -- in excellent condition, not even considering its age. Datelined Nymphenburg (the Wittlesbachs have a palace there, too, just outside Munich) and signed as Max Joseph Elector.
