    1754 German Manuscript Document Transcript
    St. Petersburg, Russian Empire
    Up for auction is a three-page manuscript document transcript produced in St. Petersburg, Russian Empire in 1754. The document is in the German language. It is signed by Ernst Gottlieb Gluck and a number of other officials of the court of Empress Catherine the Great. Ernst Gottlieb Gluck was a very important and influential official of the Russian court. He was born about 1698 in Marienburg, Livonia (present-day Latvia), and died in 1767 in St. Petersburg. He held many important posts in the Russian Empire throughout his life. I don't read German, so I cannot tell what the document is all about. But it must be an important historical document.
