A manuscript section concerning the import of beer, could it be of interest? It's signed by Johannes Botvidi and dated 1618. A couple of mandates from Gustav III? Or perhaps Carl August Dohma's recommendation letter for the chef Elias Christopher Ditmar in connection with his upcoming journey to Pomerania in 1742?
The curiosity factor is delightfully high at Stockholms Auktionsverk Magasin 5 as they now present the manuscript theme auction.
Here, you'll find all sorts of things that have been documented on paper or parchment throughout history, and in some rare cases, even on silk. Kings are mixed with explorers, writers, and all sorts of forgotten figures with obsolete titles. Plus, of course, a lot of modern celebrities that you might actually remember. Because the theme also includes autographs from the likes of Lill-Babs, Ingemar Johansson, and Frank Sinatra.
Welcome!
