Frank H. Huchins Photographs by Adriene Boutrelle Doug Murray has been an invaluable help to me in my recent studies of varieties in the paper money of the country, and he has but recently discovered a transition in the two-dollar Tillman-Morgan Legal Tenders from those without a check number on the back to the few that have one, and also a transition in the Gold Certificates of James C. Napier from the “ACT Cf JULY 12, 1882” that appears above the large “X” on the face of all the tens before his time to “ACT OF M ARCH 4, 1907” that appears there after it. These both appear on notes of both McClung and Thompson, creating tw o varieties of each of these two Friedherg numbers.

The Kducationals show no variation whatever. It is illegal to buy, sell, or own the $10,000 Gold Certificates of the Series of 1900, which are not payable to bearer but only to the Federal Reserve Board in Washington, but the author had the good fortune to secure photographs showing the two positions of the check number on the obverse in the time of Teehee and Burke, and is happy to append them. Paper Money Page 13 THE PAPER COLUMN by Peter Huntoon Arizona Territorials Shipped After Statehood If a bank changes its title, it was the practice of the Comptroller of the Currency to use up existing stocks of the older notes on the bank before shipping those with new titles. The purpose of this article is to examine the shipments of Arizona territorials made after statehood day. You may be surprised to see what percentage of the total Arizona territorial issue occurred after statehood, and how long some of these shipments lasted into the state era. Shipments After Title Changes There were two events which caused the Comptroller to stop shipments of notes on hand to operating banks before the entire stock of those notes was exhausted: (1) recharterings, and (2) the change to small size in 1929. Once a bank was rechartered, all unissued notes from the previous charter period were cancelled, and shipments of the current notes were begun. Notice that within a given charter period, all the notes on hand, even those with obsolete designs such as 82DB's during the 82VB era, were used before the current designs were shipped. When Arizona went from territory to state status in 1912, the territorial plates were either replaced or modified to reflect the change. Technically this event was a title change. The Comptroller had stocks of territorial notes for every operating bank at the time of the change. In keeping with policy, all of these notes were shipped before the first state notes were sent In general, the smaller the bank’s circulation, the longer it took to use up existing stocks of territorials. This conclusion can be drawn if you will compare the dates for the last territorial shipments on Table 1 with the circulations on Table 2. The small Tempe and Tombstone banks clearly reflect this trend. Their last territorial shipments were made on January 10, 1916, and June 29, 1915, respectively. The Tempe bank maintained a very modest circulation through the entire large note era. The few notes that were printed for the bank went a long way. Interestingly, you can see from Table 1 that two-thirds of the 1882DB territorial printing for the bank arrived after statehood! Tucson $50 and $100 Notes The 1917 territorial $50 and $100 shipments for Tucson (4287) are another story. This bank began issuing 1902DB $50 and $100 notes in 1910 and received shipments of them concurrently with its 10-10*10-20 sheets rather continuously until February 28, 1913. At that point, it had received 589 of the 50-100 sheets. The bank stopped using the higher denominations in 1913, and did not resume their use until 1916. A total of 740 1902DB 50-100 sheets had been printed for the bank, so the Comptroller sent the remaining sheets, serials 590 through 740, beginning November 14, 1916, and ending June 1, 1917. After these were gone, no $50 or $100 state notes were made for the bank and its 1917 territorials became the end of high denominations in Arizona. You can be certain that both $50 and $100 Arizona territorials from the Consolidated National Bank were in circulation through the 1920’8. At least they were in teller drawers in rather high grades like older series small size $50's and $100’s are today. Known Notes Post-Statehood Shipments Table 1 shows the complete record of Arizona territorials delivered after statehood day along with the dates of the last shipments. In all, a total of 365,494 Arizona territorials were issued. The 44,790 shipped after February 14, 1912, represent a little over 12 percent of the total. Notice that $60 and $100 territorials were still being sent to the Consolidated National Bank of Tucson as late as 1917! In contrast, the first 1902DB 10-10^10-20 state notes for this bank were shipped on April 17, 1913, along with the last of its 1902DB 10*10-10-20 territorials. At this writing, I have been able to document the existence of 25 Arizona territorials. Of these, four were shipped to their banks after statehood. These include the 02DB $20 on Tucson shown here, an i882DB $5 on Prescott, a 1902DB $10 on Tombstone, and a 1902DB $10 on Nogales. Considering that there were almost 45,000 notes involved in these late shipments, this very low total is surprising. The fact remains, Arizona territorials, no matter when they were issued, are very rare. They are disproportionately rare when compared to survival rates for other territories.

Recently it was the good fortune of Bob Cohen of Hawaii to turn up a 200- page promotional supplement published in 1915 by the Honolulu Star Bulletin that was adopted as the Official Souvenir of the Hawaii Commission honoring the completion and opening of the Panama Canal at the Panama-Pacific Exposition held in San Francisco from February 20 through December 4, 1915* The Hawaii Commission was well aware of the importance of the Canal to Hawaii* realizing its future value to the industrial and agricultural progress of the Islands resulting from the shortening of shipping routes from European* east coast South American* Canadian and United States ports by as much as 10*000 or more miles in some instances. The Souvenir Issue* although referred to by the Hawaii Commission as *TANAMA C ANAL NUMBER — Industrial Section'** by stressing the advantages of dealing with Islands also presented other aspects of importance such as their particularly well developed banking and financial institutions.

A study of the Maui banks also brings prominently to the fore, the surprising diversity of interests which occupy the attention of the people of V alley Isle, and at the same indicates something of ;;he general thrift of the community. All of the four banks on Maui are National Banks and ail of them amply justify their existence. [The four banks were situated within a radius of 28 miles. M.O*W.] Three of these banks — The First National Bank of Wailuku, The Lahaina National Bank of Lahaina and the First National Bank of Paia — are under the same management. Mr, C, H, Cooke of Honolulu is president and Mr, C. D, Lufkin of Wailuku is cashier of each. In a combined statement as of June 30, 1914, this chain of banks showed assets amounting to $634,023,34 with deposits of $429,508,28, and a surplus and profit account of $57,204,10. Loans as indicated amount to $315,476,04, The combined capital stock is $85,000,00. The business indicated in these figures is not “Sugar Business'* as these banks are not plantation banks, but depend entirely on individuals and small business firms. The oldest bank on Maui is the First National Bank of Wailuku which was organized in November of 1901, by Mr. C, D. Lufkin. The Lahaina National Bank was established in April of 1906, while the First National Bank of Paia opened its doors for business on October 20, 1913, The First National Bank of Wailuku was successful from the start. Its capital at that time was $25,000.00, but was increased to $35,000,00 two years later. A dividend of six percent per annum was paid for the first three years, after which eight percent was paid up to 1912, when it was possible to pay twelve percent. At this time also the earned surplus amounting to $47,000,00 exceeded the capital. Of the $194,045.80 outstanding as loans but a very small part is based on sugar cane collateral. During the ^rear past, when sugar securities were especially depressed, the Bank of Wailuku had only $11,000.00 loaned on sugar stocks, out of over $200,000,000 outstanding at the time. The officers and directors of the First National Bank of Wailuku are: C, H. Cooke, president; D. H. Case, 2nd, vice-president; C, D, Lufkin, cashier and manager, and J. Garcia, assistant cashier.

(This circulation data did not appear in the Hawaii Souvenir Section.) The Baldwin National Bank of Kahuli (Privately owned and the largest bank on the island of Maui) The rapid development of central Maui and the growing importance of Kahuli as a commercial and shipping center were the main factors which resulted in the organization of The Baldwin National Bank of Kahuli in 1906. The late H, P. Baldwin w^as the prime mover in this enterprise, S. M. Damon of Honolulu being also prominentny associated with him in establishing the bank. That the bank was needed was demonstrated at once by the success which it had from the start. The bank was capitalized at $50,000 and at the present time it carries a surplus of $30,000, together with commercial deposits amounting to $330^00, The Bank carries loans to the amount of $285,00 for the most part in small amounts. The principal business of the bank is of course in handling the funds needed in the operation of the sever- al big Alexander and Baldwin plantations, ranch and irrigation companies on Maui, which before the establishment of the bank was attended by more or less inconvenience and loss of time. It is also a great convenience in facilitating the heavy shipping business of the port; many individuals all over the island have been glad to avail themselves of its accommodations. At the present time the Baldwin National Bank is carrying quite a number of loans made to the new homesteaders in the Haiku district to enable them to plant pineapples. The First National Bank of Paia has been doing business for a short time but is making a good start. The capital is $25,000.00 and deposits on July 1st amounted to $26,000.00. Loans amounted to $32,631.24. This bank is the only one on Maui which owns its property. A handsome and substantial concrete building houses the business, with fixtures represents an outlay of about $4,500. The Bank is but two years old. The management of the bank consists of C, H, Cooke, president; R. A. Wadsworth, vice-president; C. D. The bank has a savings department with small deposits aggregating $140,000 upon which 4% interest is paid. There are some 1000-odd depositors in this department. Marine and fire insurance also forms quite an important part of the banks’ business. Since its organization, the direct management of the bank has been in the hands ofD. C. Lindsay, as cashier, to w'hose good judgement and energy no small part of the success achieved is due.

Historical notes on the Ohio Canal and the Miami Extension Canal (Issue II). Quotes from the past (Issue III). The Scripophilisfs Library (Issue IV). Out-of-print books (Issue IV). The second part of the LaBarre program comprises a series of soft-cover, 100 -page-plus finely printed books in an oblong format, SV 2 x IV 2 . Thus far three such volumes called Collecting Stocks and Bonds have been issued, all with a uniform cover of a montage of stocks and bonds against a distinctive color identifying each volume* Contents of each consist of a brief introduction to the hobby, a statement of grading terms, and advice on storage, display and preservation. Then follow illustrations with brief descriptive captions of various classes of stocks and bonds together with selling price* (These classes are: railroad stocks, railroad bonds, mining stocks, mining bonds, general stocks, and general bonds.) Altogether 1,158 items are illustrated and described. Therefore, while these books can be viewed as a dealer's price list, they also function as interim catalogs of what the author calls a broad sampling of these classes of U* S. material. Puper Money Page 19 INTERESTIITG ITOTES ‘BOUT INTERESTIITG NOTES ©'1982 By Roger H. Durand AN OSTENTATIOUS SIGNATURE Vanity Signatures Collectors of paper money, especially National Bank Notes, obsoletes and colonial currency, are often intrigued by the vanity signatures of the signers of the notes. Many a bank president or other officer signed notes with a signature that was either unusually large, elaborate or outstanding because of some other reason. In many cases it seemed that the officer wanted an impressive signature to be remembered by when he signed the notes. Care was taken to display his signature and it often was the most prominent feature on the note. Leading men in the community, men of wealth and position, were usually chosen to direct the banking institutions and their signatures reflected their pride. These vanity signatures were not always neat or legible because of the numbers of notes that had to be signed but they were outstanding and quite obvious when one scrutinizes the notes. The signature on a note is a good clue to the type of man that was in charge of the bank. These men often developed a signature just for the occasion of signing important documents and of course, bank notes. One of the most famous vanity signatures has to be that of John Hancock. It is so famous that it is used today as a trademark of the John Hancock Insurance Company, one of the giants of the insurance industry. But long before it was the trademark of the insurance company, it was used as the title of the $3 note of the John Hancock Bank of Springfield, Massachusetts, History of the Signature John Hancock’s signature can be found on several documents in the archives of the United States but the document that really made his signature famous was “The Declaration of Independe^ce*^ With this document, the signers pledged their lives, fortunes, and their sacred honor'' for the maintenance of independence. By signing this document, the signers placed their lives in great jeopardy. They immediately branded themselves as traitors to the throne of Great Britain. If this country had failed in its attempt at independence, the signers of the document would have been executed. The document contained 56 signatures. Some of the colonists, fearful for their lives, tried to disguise their signatures by writing very small or crowding their signatures between those of other signers. Patriots such as Francis Lightfoot Lee, Carter Braxton, George Read and several others seemed to want to make their names as inconspicuous as possible. Fear of embarrassment was probably the reason that they even signed in the first place. This certainly was not the case as far as John H ancock was concerned. His signature is by far the largest signature on the document. It was in the center on the top line, written with bold strokes and unmistakably his name. If ever a vanity signature was placed on paper, this is certainly a prime example. He wanted to make sure that there was no mistaking his name. History tells us that he was a vain individual and his signature attests to that fact. The John Hancock Bank The bank was incorporated on May 18, 1850 in a location that became Springfield, Massachusetts in 1852. James W. Crooks, one of the leading members of the proposed bank and a great admirer of the president of the Continental Congress of 1776, selected the name for the bank, A large white, carved, wooden bust of Hancock was a prominent fixture in front of the bank building. The bank opened for business on November 4, 1850 with a capital of $100,000. It became a National Bank (#982) in 1865 and its capital was increased to $150,000. The first president of the bank was Colonel James M. Thompson. After his death he was succeeded by Roger S. Moore, who ultimately resigned and was succeeded by the original cashier of the bank who served in that post for 50 years, Edmond D. Chapin, E. Dudley Chapin, the new president's nephew, became the cashier. The bank went into liquidation on March 28, 1906 with $235,300 outstanding in National Bank Notes and an unknown amount of state bank notes. About the Note The bank had only one issue of state bank notes before the National Bank era. These notes were issued in the denominations $1, $2, $3, $5, $10, $20, $50 and $100. The $5 bears a portrait of John Hancock as the center vignette. His portrait also appears on the left side of the $20 bill. As far as I can determine, the signature as the title of the bank only appears on the $3 bill. The only other denomination that I have seen was a $10 and the title was printed in block style lettering. The ^'Descriptive Register of Genuine Bank Notes/' 1862, (Continued On Page 20} Page. 20 Whole No. 97 Walrus Skin Money by TED UHL, NLG Organized in 1799 under charter from Czar Paul L the Russian-American Company set up headquarters at the rich sea otter grounds in the Alexander Archipelago at Sitka on Baranof Island in southern Alaska. Thus the stage was set for the issuance in 1816 of what may well be the world*s most fascinating currency — Walrus Skin money. Erroneously referred to as **Sealskin” money, these notes were produced by a most ingenious method. Otter skins were shipped by the R. A.C. to China in waterproof bags made of walrus skin. The bags were removed at the Chinese ports and reused to wrap shipments of spices, teas, etc. bound for Russian ports. Because of the variety of products shipped in them, the walrus bags were affected in different ways, accounting for the variety of colors in the skins. At the Russian ports the bags were removed again and select pieces were cut from them and stamped with the value and devices of the R.A.C. for use as money in the North American colony. Called Kozhanye (skins), the notes were produced until the 1830's, During those years three issues, totalling 102,000 rubles, circulated at company settlements as far south as what is now central California. Known denominations include the 10, 25 and SO-kopeks, and 1, 5, 10 and 25-rubles. These are all catalogued under item 53, page 253 in the Kardakoff catalog (see Bibliography). Apparently the first issue included notes in color. The low numbered pieces are known in shades of blue, brown, red and tan, while the later notes occur mostly with black printing on light colored parchment. It is known that this currency was designed for easy identification by the locals who, for the most part, could neither read lior write. The 10-kopek notes can be identified by holes punched in both upper corners, while the 25-kopek notes are clipped on all four corners. The Interesting Notes ’Bout Interesting Notes (Continued From Page 19) by Gwyone and Day, calls attention to imitations of this $3 bill. No other denomination from this bank is so noted. It seems to be more than coincidence that the note with the Hancock signature was counterfeited. The note was probably subject to little scrutiny and readily acceptable because of the signature in the design. This bill was supposed to have been engraved by Toppan, Carpenter, Casilear and Company, New York and Philadelphia, but it is counterfeit. Only three or four specimens have come on themarketin the last ten years and they are quite scarce. As for collectors of notes with vanity signatures, this certainly has to be a desirable addition to a collection, REFERENCES The Declaration of Independence, by Thomas Jefferson, Progressive^ Springfield, Massachussetts, George S.

It is similar in design to the other *'skins^' bearing the R.A.C, seal on the face and a machine- turned oval on the back, with the words NOTE IN AMERICA 25 RUBLES (in Cyrillic text) and the handwritten number. This note has the later style eagle as opposed to the “maritime eagle^' of the other issues, and also a round seal instead of the standard oval type of the other denominations. Additionally, the text within the seal is completely spelled out, translating as UNDER THE HIGH PATRONAGE OF HIS IMPERIAL MAJESTY, Measuring 66 by 90 millimeters, the specimen has black printing on yellowish-tan parchment with the hand-inked serial number 1060 in black.

O W £ N WARNS NLG RARE ‘14000' CHARTER SERIES SHEET SURFACES We are pleased to illustrate the No. 1 sheet, type - II, $20 notes issued by the First National Bank of Cecil, Pennsylvania, charter 14094. Only 32 sheets of six notes each were issued, total * 192 $20 notes * $3840. The original First National Bank of Cecil, Pennsylvania was granted charter 7076 in 1903 and capitalized at $25,000. The initial bank officers were Adam Wagner, president, and C. W. Benney, cashier. The bank was liquidated during the depression on May 19, 1934. Later in the same year the bank was reorganized as The First National Bank of Cecil, when it was granted charter 14094, thus succeeding the original bank. The surfacing of this rare sheet is a source of encouragement to the most skeptical collector who doubted rarities such as the Cecil notes would ever be reported. Collectors have become inspired with confidence to report the notes with which they have come in contact. The Cecil sheet reported here will most certainly warm the cockles of the ardent researchers heart. COURTESY — DAVID KOLBE The First National Bank of Cecih Pennsylvania, signed by John F. Wagner, cashier, and S. F. Beaumariage, president. Information on Large Size Star Notes Sought A research project was begun in the mid-seventies by Doug Murray of Michigan to catalog all large size star notes. These notes were used by the BEP to replace the defective large size currency that was printed from 1910 to 1929. The project has since become a nation-wide effort; information contributed by collectors and dealers has resulted in a list of over 1500 large size star notes. Among other data, this project has yielded valuable information on the relative scarcity of large star notes. For instance, only one specimen has been reported for quite a few notes, while nearly a hundred, or more, are known for others. Current plans are to publish an inexpensive soft- cover catalog containing the entire list, approximate valuations, comments on varieties, etc., in 1982. This is a final appeal to all collectors and dealers, who have not done so already, to contribute information on their large size star notes to make the list as complete as possible; your identities will be held confidential. Please send the following information to Doug Murray* P. O. Box 2, Portage, Michigan 49081: 1) Type of note. 2) Serial number. 3) Signature combination. 4) Face plate number and position letter. 5) Back plate number. 6) Approximate grade of note.

Following ie the description and illustration from the auctioneer’s catalog:) Pair of 1979 Souvenir Cards of the Internationa] Plate Printers, Die Stampers, an d Engravers Union of North America. One normal card plus the error card without the gold printing. Produced in 1979 to aid the widow of Ed Snipes, past president of the Union and a B.E.P. employee, who had passed away leaving hospital bills far in excess of his insurance coverage. Printed in a limited edition by Union members on their own time and with their own materials, with the profits going to Mrs. Snipes, this card sold originally for $8, quickly became one of the rarest and most avidly sought souvenir cards. The original intended issue of 2500 was never reached, due to problems involving the gold printing of the union triangle and capital “T" at the start of the text According to knowledgeable sources, very few of the misprinted cards (without the gold printing) were released, and as such, will no doubt bring spirited bidding from the growing ranks of souvenir card collectors.

Additionally, candidates can be pot on the ballot by petition. In order to exercise this option, a petition, signed by ten members in good standing, as well as the proposed candidate's written acceptance must be in the Secretary's hands by no later than March 1, 1982* Mail ballots will be distributed in the May /June issue of Paper Money. Results of the election will be announced at the General Membership Meeting at the ANA convention in Boston this coming August Those Governors whose terms expire this year are Mike Crabb, C. John Ferreri, Richard Jones, Boh Medlar, and Stephen Taylor. As always, if you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to write to me at P. O. Box 366, Hinsdale, Illinois 60521. New Additions: VA70 Walton, Gerame; A History of Nebraska Banking W8 and Paper Money; 675 pp., Ulus., 1978, Gift of the Author. After a decade in research and preparation, Gerome Walton, a native Nebraska historian and numismatist, has completed this massive work. Much attention is given to the National Bank Notes and wildcat currency issues of Nebraska's banks from the 1850's through the 1930’s. To sup- port the information furnished on the charter dates, bank officers, name changes, charter num- bers, and note issuance by type and denomination, photos of each bank's Issue and frequently the sig- ners themselves and their bank buildings are pre- sented. In some instances a history of the town as well as the banks it supported is offered. The book is a milestone in many respects and is unlikely to ever be duplicated in scope or for any other area due to the tremendous amount of research covering the entire state and scores of museums and libra- ries, historians, genealogists, and paper money collectors.

Hill, former director of the U. S. Bureau of Engraving describes the new small currency now being circulated by the government. Hill has asked the Senate Banking and Currency Committee to investigate issuance of the new currency by the Treasury . He contends the small notes are poorly made, and therefore easily counterfeited. Hill recommended that the small money be withdrawn from circulation to prevent the country being flooded with bogus notes, thus offsetting the saving the government makes in substituting bills one- third smaller than the old issue. While only one case of counterfeiting the new currency has been reported to the Treasury secret service, it was learned that hundreds of people from every section of the country have written to Secretary Mellon protesting the change in money sizes. Writers contended the smaller notes cause con fusion and errors and that the larger bills were easily handled. Hill wrote the committee the new “Flivver'* sized bills were the “poorest, confessedly the cheapest and without doubt, the most dangerous issue of United States currency in history/’ He predicted public opinion would require its withdrawal from circulation. “ It is true that through the changes made in the issue of notes the sum of $1,500,000 will be saved annually in the Bureau. “But it is worthwhile to save this amount to be lost through making the way easier for the counterfeiter? If you have in your possession a $10 counterfeit bill it is a dead loss, as the government does not insure against that nor will it think of refunding the value of goods which you gave when you took this bill.** Hill pointed out that since 1862 all United States money, except small fractional currency known as “shin plasters” had been of the same size. He said the old sized notes had become the world standards of excellence. (This report was furnished to us by C. M, Nielson of Salt Lake City, Utah.

OUR MARCH SALE is being printed now and if you don’t receive our catalogs but would bke a sample please write for this March sale catalog. We are privileged to have the MEMPHIS sale this year. This is the big one, Floor and mail Bid Auction, held in June 1982 in conjunction with the Memphis Paper Money Show. All Consignments will need to be in by April 1, 1982. WE ARE SOLICITING A MAJOR COLLECTION FOR THE MEMPIS SALE AND WOULD CONSIDER DEDICATING THE CATALOG TO THAT CONSIGNOR IF DESIRED. PLEASE CONTACT US NOW! IF YOU CONSIGN OR BID WITH US, Here is what we will do for you: A. Correctly grade and classify your notes for auction. We do not try to be ultra coneervative on grade to make our prices realized look better. B. Provide accurate estimates of value that bidders can depend upon. C. Place your notes before approximately 1500 interested collectors and dealers of U. S, paper money in an attractive and informative catalog of the sale. D. In most cases, our sales are mail bid^ only, so the ultimate collector knows he or she can place the bid and^ if it is high on the book, they receive the lot at a 10% advance or less above the 2nd high bid. No one is going to bid $5 or $10 more and take advantage of your knowledge. Think about it! You can bid as high as you want to pay and no one is going to know that the note is that good or that you would have paid more, E. We have one charge for the seller anywhere from 5% - 20%, depending on the consignment. Our normal fee is 15%, Here is what we don*t do: A, Charge the buyer a fee for supporting our sale and bidding on your notes. B, Over consign. That is, if we have two collections with a Fr. 282 in it in Unc and one in XF, we will not accept another one in these grades (unless it is part of a collection). We just don't need the commission so badly that we will dilute our market for you, the consignor, C, We don't '*lot up" a group of your notes just because they may be slightly inferior in grade or price. D, We won't misuse your trust in us. We both came from collecting backgrounds and, even though we are deriving income from these sales, we realize the collector is the important party in these transactions and our decisions are influenced by this. E, We don't hide behind a flock of staff. In fact, we keep our overhead down so we can sell your notes for less commission. We will be glad to talk with you and correspond with you about your collection audits sale. We will appraise your notes for you in advance and these appraised figures usually become the estimate on the lots as they are sold, after we receive your input. FROM 1971 TO 1981 THE ACKNOWLEDGED LEADERS IN NATIONAL BANK RESEARCH, SALES AND AUCTIONS! WHEN YOU DO BUSINESS WITH US, EITHER BUYING OR SELLING, WE GUARANTEE YOU WILL BE SATISFIED AND FAIRLY TREATED. Hickman - Oakes Auctions, Inc. P. O.

Hodges 1865, 350 pp Cloth bound, 1977 reprint by Pennell Publishing Co. $19.50 postpaid. ^‘Hodges' ” as this book is known, contains descriptions of over 10,000 genuine notes from 30 states, 19 Canadian banks, and the United States notes issued prior to 1865, This 1865 edition was copyrighted in 1864 and at this time the United States was at war with the Confederate States, Asa result the listing for six Southern states was not included because they were not a part of the United States, Louisiana was included as in 1864 it was occupied by Union troops under the infamous General Butler, West Virginia was added to this edition as it seceded from Virginia and join the Union in 1863. We have added a section from the 1863 edition (copyrighted in 1862) containing the six states deleted from the 1866 edition making this reprint the most comprehensive Hodges’ ever printed. The format used consists of three rows of ten notes listed in rectangles on each page. To quote from E.M, Hodges “The SAFEGUARD is almost indispensable.’’ Collectors will agree with him. We bound 10 copies in genuine leather and interleaved them with plain paper (for your own notes) and offer them subject to prior sale for $75,00 each. THE BANK OF THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA by Dr. F. Mauldin Lesesne 1970. 221 pp Hand bound. University of South Carolina Press $14,96 postpaid. The South had many colorful banks prior to the Civil War, but few could compare with the Bank of the State of South Carolina, From its charter in 181 2 until 1881 when its history ended, it was colorful, controversial, and redeemed its issued notes. The “faith and credit” of the State of South Carolina was pledged to back this bank. Dr. Lesesne ’s account of this bank is interesting reading to both collector of paper money and historical students. Pew banks have such detailed accounts of their life as the Bank of the State of South Carolina, The book is annotated and has a wonderful bibliography. If you only read one bank history, and should read this one as it will interest both South Carolinians and non-Carolinians alike. It is just an excellent story of a very important bank.
