Sell Your Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov Lenin Signed Letter
Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov (22 April [O.S. 10 April] 1870 – 21 January 1924), better known by his alias Lenin, was a Russian revolutionary, politician, and political theorist. He served as the first and founding head of government of Soviet Russia from 1917 to 1924 and of the Soviet Union from 1922 to 1924. Under his administration, Russia, and later the Soviet Union, became a one-party socialist state governed by the Soviet Communist Party. A Marxist, he developed a variant of this communist ideology known as Leninism.

Confederate General Joseph E. Johnston autograph letter signed ”J.E. Johnston”, dated 16 May 1865 from Charlotte, North Carolina, written soon after being released on parole by the Union Army. Also with three endorsements signed by Ulysses S. Grant, Secretary of War Edwin Stanton and General John Schofield. Letter is addressed to General Schofield, just two weeks after Johnston surrendered his Army of Tennessee and still active rebel troops. After both parties agreed to military surrender, Johnston and Schofield negotiated supplementary terms, including his soldiers’ release, and here asks permission to travel to Canada. Reads in part: ”…As soon as the terms of ‘the convention’ are executed in Georgia & Florida, I wish to go to St. Catherine’s Springs, Canada. Will you be so kind as to inform me if I will be permitted to travel directly from Virginia to that point? Most respectfully / Your obt sevt / J.E. Johnston”. General Schofield endorses the letter on 16 May, the same day, ”Respectfully refered [sic] to Lt. Gen. Grant. J M Schofield Maj Genl.” Grant then endorses the letter on 22 May: ”I am very much in favor of granting Gen. Johnston’s request and if authorized will telegraph the authority at once. U. S. Grant Lt. Gen.” Lastly, Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton seeks approval from President Johnson: ”Submitted to the President who directs that the permission asked by General Johnson [sic] be granted with the condition that he does not return to the United States without leave of the President. Edwin M Stanton Sec of War.” Letter on one page measures 8” x 6.25”, matted with a portrait of Johnston to an overall size of 12.5” x 18.25”. Light toning and folds throughout; very good to near fine. A U.S. Grant autograph is rare dated during the Civil War or directly relates to the Civil War as this one does. Sold for $12,500.
Russian Chemist Dmitri Mendeleev Autograph Letter Signed — “…The elements of organic chemistry are represented in such a new way…”
Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev, mastermind behind the periodic table of elements, signs a handwritten letter, “D. Mendeleef” in black ink. The letter is written in French and datelined St. Petersburg, 25 November 1888. He writes, “Sir! Allow me to thank you for sending me Remsen’s book…’Introduction to the Study of the Compounds of Carbon.’ The elements of organic chemistry are represented in such a new way…verify if I can get the rights to translate into other languages…” Significant chipping and some paper loss to edges of 8.5″ x 11″ letter, though handwriting remains quite clear and legible. Very good. Handwritten letters by Mendeleev are quite scarce, especially so with chemistry content. Sold for $9,359.
1889 AT Russian 5 Roubles NGC MS63
The ruble or rouble (/ˈruːbəl/; Russian: рубль, IPA: [rublʲ]) or ₽ is or was a currency unit of a number of countries in Eastern Europe closely associated with the economy of Russia. Originally, the ruble was the currency unit of Imperial Russia and then the Soviet Union (as the Soviet ruble), and it is currently the currency unit of Russia (as the Russian ruble) and Belarus (as the Belarussian ruble). On 17 December 1885, a new standard was adopted which did not change the silver ruble but reduced the gold content to 1.161 grams, pegging the gold ruble to the French franc at a rate of 1 ruble = 4 francs. This rate was revised in 1897 to 1 ruble = 2⅔ francs (0.774 grams gold). The ruble was worth about 0.50 USD in 1914. With the outbreak of World War I, the gold standard peg was dropped and the ruble fell in value, suffering from hyperinlation in the early 1920s. With the founding of the Soviet Union in 1922, the Russian ruble was replaced by the Soviet ruble. 1889 AT Russian 5 Roubles — NGC Graded MS63 . Sold for $1,100.
