<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kaparthy, post: 989058, member: 57463&quot;]Wells Fargo started up in 1858.&nbsp; (See Wikipedia).&nbsp; In the era of your document, it was in its heyday.&nbsp; Later, it was seized by the government and then re-organized.</p><p><br /></p><p>1866: &#039;Grand consolidation&#039; unites Wells Fargo, Holladay, and Overland Mail stage lines under the Wells Fargo name. </p><p>1904: A.P.

And there you are.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Do you have a source of Wells Fargo receipts at 100 for $55?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>So, OK, don&#039;t buy a hundred of these at $15 each because you can buy frames for less, but, goodness, man, indulge yourself.&nbsp; You deserve it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
