Original 1847 “Reisepass in das Ausland” (passport for travel abroad) issued by the Royal Bavarian District Police Authority in Oberfranken (Upper Franconia). Issued on 28 March 1847 to a traveler named Johann Michael [surname], with handwritten physical description and official stamps/seals to travel to the United States. Beautiful ornate border with Bavarian coat of arms. Authentic historical document, great for collectors of 19th-century German/Bavarian ephemera or genealogy. Aged paper with folds and typical wear for its age, but text and decorations remain clear and impressive.
