In 1789, he was appointed to the Maryland Court of Appeals, the highest court in the state, where he served for over two decades. During his tenure, Chase helped establish important legal precedents that shaped the American legal system. This historic print bears the authentic autograph of Samuel Chase, a testament to his esteemed place in American history.
