Here are some Oliver Cromwell signed letters we have sold in the past:
Oliver Cromwell 1648 Autograph Letter Signed
Oliver Cromwell autograph letter signed with intriguing content regarding the proposed marriage of his oldest son Richard to Richard’s eventual wife Dorothy, the daughter of Richard Maijor. Letter is important not only for its date — 3 April 1648, as the Second English Civil War was brewing, but also for the pairing of the young couple. Quoting from Cromwell’s biographer Samuel Church in “Oliver Cromwell, a History”, the choice of companion for his son revealed Cromwell’s character: “Had Oliver at this time cherished the bold schemes for dominion which his enemies impute to him, he would never have sought this obscure alliance with the daughter of a country gentleman.” Indeed this “country gentleman” had only served as High Sheriff of Hampshire before the marriage of his daughter, but would subsequently serve as Member of Parliament, as well as in Cromwell’s English Council of State. Sold for your $8,100.

Oliver Cromwell Letter Signed Oliver P as Lord Protecto
Oliver Cromwell letter signed “Oliver P” as Lord Protector of the Commonwealth, from Whitehall Palace on 27 January 1654 shortly after Cromwell’s appointment in December 1653. As Protector, Cromwell signed his documents as “Oliver P”, similar in style to the “R” following the signature of a monarch although ostensibly, the Protectorate was designed to pivot away from monarchy. In this letter, written to the Commissioners of the Admiralty and Marine, Cromwell readies the Summer Guard to defend British shipping from Barbary pirates. Sold for $3,983.
