One of the 60 fine items posted this week on our website as part of our 
SPRING MISCELLANY catalog.

KEROUAC, Jack. SIGNED CHECK to the IRS. A check made out in Kerouac's 
hand to the Internal Revenue Service, in the amount of $300, drawn on 
the account of John L. Kerouac and his mother, Gabrielle Kerouac, at 
Security National Bank of Northport, NY, dated 11 April 1963 and 
numbered in ink by Kerouac as check #51. SIGNED as John L. Kerouac. As a 
writer Kerouac would have had to make a quarterly payment to the IRS. 
This check is one of those payments. Usual cancellation marks, none 
affecting the signature. Fine.         $1,000.00
