The signed check measures 3x8.2" and it is dated March 29, 1989, and drawn on the State Street Bank and Trust Company of Boston, Massachusetts. the check is made out to "K. Hichtenberg and Co.," and it has been cashed. Williams signed the check, using a blue ballpoint, as "Theodore Williams." The check is in excellent condition.
