Revolutionary War dated original Manuscript Document Signed, "Geo. Bryant," at Philadelphia, PA. George Bryant (1731-1791), Vice President of Pennsylvania (analogous to Lieutenant-Governor) 1777-1779. Payment document signed by him as vice president of Pennsylvania, at the state house later known as Independence Hall. Bryant was born in Dublin, Ireland, and came to Philadelphia in1752. As an active Presbyterian, Bryan in the late 1750s and early 1760s played a role in trying to hold together two factions that had emerged during the Great Awakening. This struggle led him into provincial politics where he fought the proprietors and the strong Quaker faction that sought to make Pennsylvania a royal colony. When the Stamp Act was passed in 1765, Bryan helped resist the oppressive act by joining other Philadelphia merchants in signing the Non-Importation agreement. This action likely contributed to his bankruptcy in 1771. After Pennsylvania adopted a new state constitution in 1776, he became an advocate of the radical unicameral government. In the new government, Bryan served from 1777-1779 as Vice-President of the Supreme Executive Council. In 1779 he was appointed a trustee of the University of Pennsylvania. Approximate Dimensions:Condition:Some paper loss at folds. Re-backing done to stabilize document.

Jasper Johns (b. 1930) after.False Start IOffset lithograph printed in colours, 1975, printed and published by Universal Limited Art Editions, Inc., Islip, with their stamp, on BFK Rives wove paper, the full sheet, sheet 570 x 443mm (22 3/8 x 17 3/8)  In 1970, Tanya Grosman and the ULAE embarked on a project with Jasper Johns to create a catalogue raisonné of the artist's prints. To be included in the publication were twelve offset lithographed prints inspired by the artist's most iconic images and original editions. Other than their size, the paper, colour and printing sequence match the original edition. The project was ultimately abandoned after Grosman's untimely death in 1982, and there are thus only a limited number of these 'after' editions like the present example available today.
