Description

Please email with any questions. Original World War I "King's certificate" with artwork by Bernard Partridge and a handmade 19" by 17" walnut frame. Certificate belonged to Private Albert Graham, #14214, served with the Royal Irish Fusiliers 1914-1918. He was mustered out in January 1919. On the back, family members have added a newspaper clipping with a photo. Handwritten on the photo is "Gramps Graham" with an indicating arrow. Also attached to the back is a write-up from 1970 for Albert "Pat" Graham. This very nice memorial was from Mr Graham's employer of more than 34 years- a flooring company in Sacramento, California where he worked as an installer. The certificate is framed behind glass with a cardboard mat around it. I can see that the certificate has some fold lines. It has a tear in the center of the left edge about 3" long. There is some darkening in the lower right- looks like a singe from a fire.
