Wyoming Territory (Offices in Boston, MA), 1884, Lowe Cattle Company, 31 Shares Stock Certificate (I/U). Printed in black and red with an ornate border and a left-side vignette of cattle grazing on the open range, symbolizing the livestock industry of the American West; incorporated under the laws of Wyoming Territory in 1884 with capital of $600,000 to manage large-scale cattle ranching during the peak cattle boom, when Eastern investors financed ranches across the Plains; certificates were made Unassessable, protecting investors from future company debts; issued to Granville Whitney and hand-signed by the president and treasurer, dated December 16, 1884, with embossed corporate seal; the condition ranges from Choice Fine to VF condition or better. Printed by T. Groom & Co., Boston. Granville Whitney was a prominent cattleman in the American West during the 1880s. He organized and managed large ranching operations, adopting practical range-management methods and breeding programs to develop stock suited to harsh conditions. His enterprises helped drive the expansion of the regional cattle trade, and his approach influenced later generations of ranchers and cattlemen.
