Extraordinary Grouping of Unissued Railroad Shares, with Little Duplication. The emphasis is on quality in this unusual group of unissued railroad shares. The man who originally owned these certificates was obviously trying to build a reference collection of U.S. rails. Most have no dates, but from the certificate designs, many are from the 1880s and 1890s. Many scarcer railroads, impossible to find issued, are included. Must be seen. Sold as is. Mostly UU, and the average grade is EF. [195]
