Holograph (nonfiction)

A holograph is a document written entirely in the handwriting of the person whose signature it bears.

Some countries (e.g., France) or local jurisdictions within certain countries (e.g., some U.S. states) give legal standing to specific types of holographic documents, generally waiving requirements that they be witnessed.

One of the most important types of such documents are holographic last wills. See Will and testament (nonfiction).
