Auction Date:2010 Apr 15 @ 11:00 (UTC-4 : AST/EDT)
Location:Crowne Plaza Hotel. 401 South Van Brunt St, Englewood, New Jersey, 07631, United States
Maryland. 1841. 1 Share of capital stock for Thomas Hite of Virginia. Issued and uncancelled. Cert.# 208. Amazing canal with people strolling next to it with town in background vignette, vertically on the left border. Very presentable and collectible example of this rarity that has only appeared in auction a handful of times in the last 20 years that I know of. The vignette on the left has been cut into slightly, light to moderate folds with 2 holes on bottom left and right where it evidently was stored in a file, possibly a legal document or note book. Very stunning and definitely a difficult certificate to find in any condition. Paper has threads running through it and is slightly translucent. A trophy for the discriminating collector.
