Grade: AU

Unbelievably spectacular Chicago-land trophy boasting the finest quality extant on this well collected location. Serial #1, plate position A, here is the very first note printed. Bold pen signatures of Charles Stevens and Jo Ward balance the note. Oversize margins add to the package. Home to Northwestern University, this wealthy community, 12 miles north of Chicago, is one of Illinois' best addresses. This is the first auction appearance.
