Both of the banks in this southern community issued Red Seals. This bank issued 6,672 sheets of $5-5-5-5 and 5,254 sheets of $10-10-10-20 Red Seals. The bank only lasted from 1902 to 1925, and although there are 23 large notes reported this is the finest in the census, regardless of issue. It realized $18,400 in the Dreger Collection that sold in 2002. Demand should be strong today because there is no better Red Seal among the three reported. --- Jess Lipka Red Seal Collection --- Jess Lipka Red Seal Collection
