Here's another reprint from the "Opening of the West" series, which I mention in the mining thread. I just love the vignette on this one.

And a few more. I really like all the mechanical devices on the first one.

Two more arrived in my mailbox today! I wish one didn't have the pull-though punch holes, but it was inexpensive so I won't complain.

Another trolley stock! And the architecture in the background is quite attractive, too.

And here is neither a stock or bond! This is a promotional sheet put together by U.S. Banknote Corporation in the 1980s, probably as a sales tool. It's a big card (14 x 11"), but I love all the streetcar vignettes it features. Notice the trolley in the lower left matches the Monongahela stock posted earlier.

That one, no. When I bought it many years ago, I had never seen one before and I haven't run across one since. But there is another similar card featuring locomotives, which pops up more frequently. Email me and I can provide more info.
