Time for a bump! I picked up this nice streetcar stock recently -- no trolley vignettes, but I really like the engraving of the Capitol Building.

Here's one that has special significance to me. We lived in Portland for more than a decade and some of the tracks for this line still exist.

When I was young I worked for a trading company for a minute. I had to look over stocks all day long. And I can tell you some of them are so beautiful they are frame worthy. I'm sure some of these photos aren't doing the stock any justice for they are so beautiful in person, they're like magnificent works of art.

My great-great grandfather thought electric railways were the wave of the future and bought 150 shares in total at $10 each in 1911. It didn't work out. This one of the certificates.

Nice example! At least it still has sentimental value.

This one just arrived. Studying it close up, I was fascinated by all the little details in the vignette -- the horse and carriage, the men in top hats in the doorway. Great example of the engraver's art.
