Here is an Alessandro Volta signed document we have sold in the past:
Alessandro Volta Document Signed 30 August 1796 Italy
Alessandro Giuseppe Antonio Anastasio Volta (18 February 1745 – 5 March 1827) was an Italian physicist, chemist, and pioneer of electricity and power who is credited as the inventor of the electric battery and the discoverer of methane. He invented the voltaic pile in 1799, and reported the results of his experiments in 1800 in a two-part letter to the President of the Royal Society. With this invention Volta proved that electricity could be generated chemically and debunked the prevalent theory that electricity was generated solely by living beings. Volta’s invention sparked a great amount of scientific excitement and led others to conduct similar experiments which eventually led to the development of the field of electrochemistry.
Alessandro Volta document signed, dated 30 August 1796 from Pavia, Italy. Here, the acclaimed Italian physicist, best known for his invention of the battery signs a partially printed document in Italian, “Alessandro Volta / [illegible] Prof.” Document seems to denote an amount of money paid by the University of Pavia where Volta served as a chair. One page measures 8.75″ x 10.75″. Toning, else very good to near fine. Sold for $1,000.
