SMITH HANDWRITES A COMPLETE FAIR COPY OF “AMERICA”
SAMUEL F. SMITH (1808-1895). A Baptist clergyman and poet, Smith authored“America (My Country ‘Tis Of Thee)”.
AMS. 2pg. 4 ½” x 7 ½”. 1877. No place. A fair copy of “America” signed “S.F. Smith 1832-1877”. He penned all fourstanzas on two separate sheets and the entire text is displayed at once. Although Smith would often write out a coupleof lines from “America”, he would not often give a complete holograph of theentire text, especially in his older age.The item is matted in blue and framed in dark brown to a size of nearly22” by 18” (there is some wear to the frame).The pages are mounted with a photograph of Smith and a typedtranscription of the hymn. The ink islight and there was a complete horizontal separation to each sheet that touchesa few words, but this fault has been stabilized by the mounting and is not verynoticeable (particularly on the first page).The condition is fair to good.
