This small, printed document is a "Toegangsbewijs" (admission ticket) to the funeral of King Willem II, dated 31 March 1849. The ticket is signed by the Mayor and Commissioner of the Royal Burial Vault, "METELERKAMP," and bears the city seal of Delft, the location of the funeral. The ticket is a historical artifact, a physical reminder of a significant event in Dutch history. It is housed in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, and is an intriguing piece of ephemera.
