William III (William Henry; Dutch: Willem Hendrik; 4 November 1650 – 8 March 1702), also widely known as William of Orange, was the sovereign Prince of Orange from birth, Stadtholder of Holland, Zeeland, Utrecht, Guelders, and Overijssel in the Dutch Republic from the 1670s, and King of England, Ireland, and Scotland from 1689 until his death in 1702. As King of Scotland, he is known as William II. He is sometimes informally known as “King Billy” in Ireland and Scotland. His victory at the Battle of the Boyne in 1690 is commemorated by Unionists, who display orange colours in his honour. He ruled Britain alongside his wife and cousin Queen Mary II, and popular histories usually refer to their reign as that of “William and Mary”.

Here are some items that our auction house, Nate D. Sanders (http://www.NateDSanders.com) has sold:
Important Henry VIII order signed ”Henry R”, as King of England and Ireland, commanding Sir Charles Brandon to gather troops in preparation for his planned invasion of France, as part of the Italian Wars. Dated 16 September 1512, only three years into his reign, Henry VIII here takes advantage of the Pope’s ”Holy League” against France to expand his territory in the northern part of that country. To that end, he orders the mustering of troops from the counties of Carnarvon, Merioneth, and Anglesey in Wales. Its compelling text reads in part: ”…’cause asmany of thaym as bee hable men for the warre to bee sufficiently furnisshed of thaire harneys and to bee always in arredynesse to doo unto us s[e]rvice under yo[u]r ledyng…” Those who refuse are ”…to be condignely punisshed according to his or thaire demerits in example of other that wolde semblably presume toffende herafter…” Sir Brandon, to whom this order is directed, went on to become the 1st Duke of Suffolk following success in August 1513 at the Battle of the Spurs — using the men culled from this initiative. A red seal is affixed to bottom center. Single page runs 16 lines on vellum and measures 11.25″ x 6.5″. Toning, creasing and some light staining, else near fine. An important document in the early years of the Italian Wars, which raged for more than sixty years, ultimately involving most of Europe in a complex conflict that spawned wars within wars. Sold for $40,954.
King Charles II 1660 Proclamation From The First Month of Restoration — Demanding Those Responsible For The Execution of His Father King Charles I Turn Themselves In For Murder & Treason
Historically important proclamation by King Charles II from 1660, aggressively targeting those who had taken part in the beheading of his father, Charles I. The Commonwealth of England abolished the monarchy as an institution during its Civil War in 1649, and replaced it with a Parliament under Oliver Cromwell in a period known as the Interregnum. In accordance with the wishes of the people, the throne was reinstated in 1660, and the executed King’s son, Charles II, returned from exile in France to rule as King in May of 1660. Broadside is dated one month later, 6 June 1660. With a vengeance for those who aided in his father’s regicide, Charles II’s Proclamation reads like a most wanted list, demanding: “the persons therein named, who sate, gave judgment, and assisted in that horrid and detestable murder of his majesties royal father of blessed memory, to appear and render themselves within fourteen days, under pain of being excepted from pardon…” The proclamation names 44 men charged with treason and murder who were at large. By this time, some of the implicated listed here had died, some were pardoned, and some fled the country, with Dixwell, Whalley, and Goffe famously reuniting in Connecticut. The worst offenders were hanged, drawn and quartered, or imprisoned for life. The Restoration not only provided for the monarchy to resume, but went so far as not to acknowledge its temporary cessation; King Charles II’s reign was officially determined to have begun immediately upon his father’s death in 1649. The dating reflects this in a line printed at the bottom: “Given at our Court at Whitehall the sixth day of June 1660 in the Twelfth Year of Our Reign / Printed by John Bill and Christopher Barker / Printers to our King’s most excellent majesty 1660.” Broadsheet measures 9.5″ x 14.75″, with two ornate woodcut emblems, including a royal arms at top, and a large woodcut initial “C.” A browned vertical crease runs through center, else near fine. An important and scarce document from the dawn of the famous English Restoration period. Sold for $20,000.

The Catholic Monarchs, Ferdinand II and Isabella I signed Royal decree as King and Queen of the Spanish Empire, dated 14 May 1491. Signed in large bold writing, ”Yo el Rey” (I the King) and ”Yo la Reyna” (I the Queen). Document instructs Juan Alfonso Serrano, a highly ranked ”pesquisidor” for the Crown, to allow a soldier, Juan Garcia Guerrero, to keep his land. At this time, Spain was driving out the Moors from southern Spain which necessitated someone to allocate these re-conquered lands.

He says they took it out of necessity to sustain themselves acquiring the farm that we had ordered given to some of their friends and later, settling there with their family, they gave to them. Now he says you wish to take from his possession the farm he has there that we had granted from what had belonged to the Moor Sufuz, and you say he should not enjoy use of that property. / He entreats and asks us because of our association with this to send you proof. For that end we order you to allow him to have and possess that farm in the manner he now has it and not to take it from him due to our volition in this matter, and so make an exception in consideration of the services he and his ascendants have done for us. Done in Barcelona the fourteenth of the month of May of One Thousand and Four Hundred and Ninety and One Years. / [signed] I the King I the Queen / By order of the King and Queen / Juan de la Parra / Copy so that Juan Alonso Serrano, Distributor of land in Seville, does not take from Juan Garcia Guerrero the possession of the farm that he was granted.” Additionally signed by three nobleman as witnesses. Single page document measures 8” x 9.75” Folds, small areas of worming and irregularly trimmed edges. Overall very good to near fine given age. Accompanied by a COA from University Archives.
