ArmeeKorps. The document measures 14 ½” x 9.” It was boldly signed in black ink by Kaiser Wilhelm I on 14 December 1875. Directly under Wilhelm I’s signature we see the House of Hohenzollern’s embossed royal seal. The document has been folded in half one way, and into thirds the other. The document is complete, but has some separation in one fold. This does not cause a problem in viewing any part of the document or the signature.
