Kulm was a small town in La Moure County when this bank was chartered in August 1917 and they issued 2,069 sheets of Blue Seals. This is a lovely grade note, albeit there is a paper clip rust mark on the face. The officers' signatures are clearly stamped in purple. There are only three large notes reported on the bank. PMG notes: rust. Kulm, in La Moure County, was named after the city in Bessarabia, Russia. The population was 354 at the 2010 census. Kulm was founded in 1892 when the railroad arrived and it remained the western terminus of the Soo Line railroad until 1898 when it was extended west. The post office was established January 9, 1893 with Friedrich Buechler (1869-1904) as Postmaster. The Kulm Voluntary Fire Department was organized November 9, 1909. The City of Kulm had at this time purchased two chemicals and one hook and ladder cart. In 1949 the Civic Improvement Association bought the first fire truck including pumper and ladders. The city, which incorporated in 1906, reached a peak population of 742 in 1930. Angie Dickinson, the actress, was born here in 1936.
