MeadowviewCollector Pillar of the Community United States 4409 Posts	Posted 03/09/2016 9:27 pm I was an unsuccessful bidder on this FDIC brass sign 131741750277 I was going to hang it on my wall. I found a photo of the bank online when I was searching for a photo of a cafe a family member worked at back in the 1940s to 1960s for a project. The Nevada National Bank was established on January 1, 1934 and given Charter # 14065. This institution acquired FDIC insurance on March 16, 1934. The bank issued Series 1929 Type 2's before the note issuing period ended in 1935. I only found one auction record from 2011 for a $10 note in VF25 that sold for over $5,000 http://currency.ha.com/itm/national...ption-071515 I bet you all are tired of hearing me talk about nationals. -MV Report this Post to the Staff

westernsky Pillar of the Community United States 7618 Posts	Posted 03/09/2016 11:04 pm I'd guess the blank area was mostly likely where they posted their operating hours. Report this Post to the Staff
CelticKnot Bedrock of the Community United States 12819 Posts	Posted 03/09/2016 11:23 pm Good guess as far as I'm concerned. That's a nice piece of history. Report this Post to the Staff
jewelcard Valued Member United States 135 Posts	Posted 03/10/2016 01:14 am I love history and this is really cool. If would be great if you found a picture of the sign in or on the bank. I love seeing an old picture and then hold in my hand something that was in said picture. Report this Post to the Staff
chequer Pillar of the Community Canada 4227 Posts	Posted 03/10/2016 08:33 am Cool item. Possibly a calendar? Report this Post to the Staff
westernsky Pillar of the Community United States 7618 Posts	Posted 03/10/2016 09:34 am Calendar makes more sense as the item was probably a promotional give-a-way. Report this Post to the Staff
MeadowviewCollector Pillar of the Community United States 4409 Posts	Posted 03/10/2016 11:05 am The seller thought and this is directly from the description "center area had a separate sign indicating the amount each account was insured for. Every time that amount was raised, a new piece would replace it." It seemed plausible when I first came across the auction. After seeing chequer's post I think a calendar is the more likely answer too. -MV Edited by MeadowviewCollector 03/10/2016 11:05 am Report this Post to the Staff
moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 03/10/2016 12:25 pm That is a neat item. I've collected a number of local bank promotional items to go along with my few bills. It's surprising how many people bid on bank related merchandise. Even the Revenuers (Local and State Tax Stamp collectors in particular) seem to like those items, too. Report this Post to the Staff
