<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Quant.Geek, post: 2325474, member: 74799&quot;]I have been out of the paper money scene for a while as I was concentrating on other acquisitions, but I am back with the following recent purchase:</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Newark, Ohio: Columbus &amp; Lake Erie Rail Road Co. $50 Oct. 1, 1850 Bond (Wolka 1927-01) </b></p><p><br /></p><p>This attractive bond was the product of Rawdon, Wright, Hatch &amp; Edson, Cincinnati and the central vignette includes the train engine Bellville. The railroad was organized in 1845. Seven years later, it reached Newark. The next year, 1853, the name was changed to the Sandusky, Mansfield and Newark Rail Road. In 1869, the B&amp;O Rail Road purchased the route. The $50 bond is the only denomination listed in the Wolka reference and it was assigned a rarity rating of R-5, indicating 11 to 25 known.</p><p><br /></p><p><b><img src="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/albums/userpics/36484/Wolka_1927-01_Front.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </b></p><p><b><img src="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/albums/userpics/36484/Wolka_1927-01_Rear.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </b>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
