This extraordinary 2025 A Word from POTUS card features an authentic, hand-cut handwritten word fragment penned by George Washington himself during his historic days as a young land surveyor in Virginia. Certified and authenticated by Beckett Authentication Services (BAS #AE3255), this unique piece houses a genuine snippet salvaged directly from a manuscript written entirely in the Founding Father's own handwriting.
The underlying document is an authentic 18th-century land survey detailing property boundaries in Botetourt County near Lexington, charting geographical markers like wagon roads, pine corners, and creeks. The embedded word fragment "ches" comes directly from Washington's notes as the trailing end of the word "branches", captured mid-sentence as he mapped out property lines crossing local waterways.
Encased in its original magnetic holder and backed by full Beckett provenance, this museum-grade relic captures a tangible, granular piece of George Washington's pre-presidential life on the American frontier.
