NJ. Princeton. Ch.4872. First National Bank of Princeton. $5. 1902 PB. Fr. 603. No.23257/23257. Plate C. Very Fine-Extremely Fine, with a tight upper margin. Clean, with stamped signatures. An unusually nice example of a large note on this charter.

Large notes on this bank are in demand for two reasons. One is the association with the Ivy League university located in this town. The other is the Napier/Thompson signatures, which appear on the notes of relatively few banks which chartered or re-chartered during the 8 ½ months of Napier and Thompson´s joint tenure.
