    Yes, a sample of all six sets. They all came with envelopes too. The pamphlet is to wide to scan or I would scan it.

    Thank you for the reply @lettow. I will indeed be purchasing some of the albums. And here is a add to the thread.

    I'm a big fan of old railroad and mining stocks; especially old obscure railroads.

    I also use ITOYA Art Profilo albums for sheet storage. 579121AB-E8D9-4BB2-9D0C-5E27C4F50064.jpeg

    Excellent way to store sheets Steve. I picked up a couple of 9x12 albums. I like the 11x14 as well and will likely grab a couple of those over the next month or two. I appreciate the feedback.

    Lettow, if you'd ever like to share a better image of that old US Treasury bond, I would love to see it! :)

    It is not a US Treasury bond. It was issued by the State of Wisconsin to fund the construction of a canal between the Fox and Wisconsin Rivers to connect the Great Lakes and the Mississippi.

    It came from Chet Krause's collection of Wisconsin financial documents.

    That would have been the Portage Canal. I just looked it up on Wikipedia. Interesting history.

    That Eastern Airlines certificate is a bit of a mystery. In the bottom left is the imprint of Security-Columbian / United States Banknote Corp. But at the lower left of the vignette itself is "F B Co." At the time, the only firm by those initials would be Federated Bank Note Co. -- and that company was a competitor of U.S. Banknote. Hmmm, I wonder what the story is behind that.

    All of the ones I posted I purchased for $0.50 per in a bulk package. There are definitely certificates worth a bunch that might be counterfeited, but for the most part, I don't worry about that because if I'm spending so little on something that looks nice, it doesn't matter too much if it's real or not.
