AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
United States – Collection of 20 historical stock and bond certificates – Railroads, Oil, Mines and American Industry.
Fascinating lot consisting of 20 original American financial titles, among shares, certificates and historical bonds, belonging to major companies that contributed to the industrial and economic development of the United States of America.
A particularly interesting collection for variety, graphics and historical content, able to tell through authentic financial documents some of the great sectors that played a leading role in the economic expansion of the United States: railroads, oil, coal, copper, mining industry, chemical, cement, infrastructure and large corporations.
Among the clearly recognizable names in the lot are companies of great historical and numismatic interest such as The New York Central, Lehigh Valley Railroad Company, The Anaconda Company, Kaiser-Frazer Corporation, Sinclair Oil Corporation, Allied Chemical Corporation, The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company (A&P), in addition to numerous other mining, energy and industrial companies.
A journey through American economic history
These certificates represent a tangible testimony of the era when shares and bonds were real paper documents, often featuring elaborate engravings, allegorical vignettes, views of plants, locomotives, industrial landscapes, portraits, company crests and sophisticated ornamental motifs.
Particularly evocative are the titles linked to American railway history, a fundamental sector for the economic conquest of the land and the development of the United States between the 19th and 20th centuries. They are complemented by certificates belonging to the world of oil, coal, copper and mining industry, protagonists of the growth of American industrial power.
The color and graphic variety of the documents – blue, green, orange, brown and black – also makes the lot extremely decorative and suitable for display.
