<p>[QUOTE=&quot;techwriter, post: 2228879, member: 75477&quot;]Here&#039;s another Egg Harbor note with quite a history:</p><p>The central vignette shows dogs chasing a fleeing stag. At the lower right is a patriotic eagle, at the lower left is an Indian maiden, and at the upper right is a young child. The story of the last vignette was told by Julian Blanchard in The Essay-Proof Journal, Fall 1959, &quot;A stamp dealer pictured on a bank note: P.M. Wolsieffer, Inventor of the Approval Card.&quot; Wolsieffer, who later worked with J.W. Haseltine and still later joined the American Numismatic Association, gave an account, stating that Egg Harbor City had been incorporated in 1857: &quot;I was the first baby born there after it was incorporated as a city, and when a bank was established there they had my father supply one of my photographs as a small child for the purpose of putting it on one of the notes.&quot; </p><p><img src="http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/nn24/techwriter/eggharbor_1NJ64598_zpsh4xkqaim.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
