Offered for the first time ever – genuine handwriting from English Evolutionary Biologist & Author Charles Darwin, authenticated and encapsulated by (BAS) Beckett Authentication Services.Produced in an exclusive CutWordCo Limited Edition of just 25 cards.
Each handwritten word was carefully removed from an undated handwritten letter Darwin wrote. The background of this card features an image of Darwin's tree of life sketch from his notebook where he studied the transmutation of species.
You will not receive a copy of the letter from Darwin, the 4th image is shown purely to illustrate where the word(s) came from. You will only receive the BAS encapsulated word, "many", encapsulate #00020260531.
Each encapsulated word was individually removed from an undated letter written by Darwin responding to a Ladyship’s inquiry on the well-being of an ailing Mrs. Darwin, “…who has had a wretched time now for many months…”. Darwin’s wife, Emma, suffered from frequent, severe migraines.
Genuine Darwin autograph letters are extremely hard to come by and can fetch thousands of dollars. This encapsulated word offers a rare and affordable opportunity to own an authentic piece of Darwin's handwriting.
The cost of authenticating a single word of Darwin’s handwriting is $250 on Beckett's website.
