COLUMBIAN CENTINEL, Boston, Aug. 4, 1790 

* President George Washington
* Act of Congress script signed


Almost a full column is taken up with an Act of Congress, headed with an engraving of a heraldic eagle, this is: "An Act Imposing Duties on the Tonnage of Ships or Vessels" which is signed in script type (desired) by the President: George Washington. Rarely is his full name spelled out in such documents.
Four pages, a few irregularities at the margins, a few minor margin tears, good condition.
