<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gsalexan, post: 1301983, member: 24274&quot;]I&#039;ve been having great luck lately acquiring convention booklets from the International Plate Printer&#039;s Union, which contain some incredible engravings from both commercial banknote firms and the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. If you are not familiar with these you can learn more on this post:&nbsp; <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/t94663-31/#post1255043" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/t94663-31/#post1255043">http://www.cointalk.com/t94663-31/#post1255043</a></p><p><br /></p><p>My latest one arrived yesterday, the 1948 booklet, with two wonderful pieces from American Bank Note. This seemed like a perfect place to post a few scans. The front page features a banknote sized engraving, which looks very similar to some European notes (apart from the eagle). </p><p><br /></p><p>The second page is also an ABNCo engraving, featuring two angels and the convention date. This one made me smile because it&#039;s the same image that appears on an A&amp;P stock certificate a couple decades later.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
