Partly-printed DS, signed “Edward RI,” one page, 16 x 12, October 2, 1936. King Edward appoints Kenneth Alan Hannan–Stanley "to be an Officer in Our Land Forces" with the rank of Second Lieutenant. Signed in the upper left corner above the embossed seal by the king. In very good to fine condition, with light toning, mild rippling, and faint staining along the bottom edge. As Edward VIII reigned only from January 20–December 11, 1936, any document signed as king is extremely scarce.Format: DS
