Comments:
It is not known how this bookmark is signed on the back, although as the design has many feaures of Grant, particularly the design of the stiff backing paper, and is typical of his manufacture, there can be no doubt this is a genuine GRANT bookmark
 
This bookmark is almost identical to gb1930: Souvenir / Liberty Bell / Woven in the Columbian Exposition Chicago 1893 / . . . . /America is Free, which is known to have been made by Grant.
