ISSUED NOTE ALONG WITH POSTCARD AND ENGRAVED PROGRESS FACE PROOF of the central vignette. While the postcard depicts workers loading train with bananas, the note has reversed some images and deleted other parts. The proof is NOT exactly as the note; signature titles and other design elements are set off in white block much more strongly than the note. Last date for type. Lightly flattened. Desirable and in demand. A comparable example hammered for $1000 in our September 2007 sale.
