( CAPONE, Al ) Pinkert State Bank, Stock Certificate
Pinkert State Bank of Cicero Illinois
1931. Very Good. One leaf two vertical folds signed by the buyer the bank president and cashier with embossed paper seal. <br/><br/>This is stock certificate No. 506 for 5 shares of stock at a par value of $100 each. It was issued to F. O. Brown and appears never to have been redeemed. The Pinkert State Bank at Cicero Illinois was involved in banking transactions with members of the Capone Family particularly Alphonse and Ralph. In fact Ralph who was known as the money man for his brother Alphonse had five accounts at the Pinkert Bank Al also had a safe deposit box there. <br />Al Capone was arrested just days earlier 25 February 1931 in Chicago and charged with vagrancy - because he had no visible means of support. A Pinkert employee testified at Al's trial on April 12 1926 Al Capone had rented a safe deposit box at the bank. unknown

(CONSTRUCTION BOND)
Illinois Central Rail-Road Company Provisional Certificate for One Construction Bond of $1000. -- or at 4s. 2d. Sterling per Dollar L208.6.8. Sterling
After two decades of false starts and endless stalls in February 1851 the Illinois legislature at last incorporated the long-anticipated Illinois Central Railroad Company. Staking and surveying began immediately and the first section -- running between Chicago and Calumet -- opened for traffic on May 24 1852. Despite the fact that this railroad was the first ever to receive a federal land grant they had a difficult time finding investors to purchase these bonds. Printed Document 1p 12 3/4" X 13¼" New York NY 1852 August 16. Very good. Minor edgewear; bit of edgewear on some original folds not weakened. Printed on pale blue stock this handsome provisional certificate promises a six percent return. Typical boilerplate text with a variety of ornamental typefaces signed at the conclusion by the company president Robert Schuyler president and director from 1852 to 1854 at lower right and company secretary S.A. Lofson at lower left both heavily cross-hatched to cancel. Attractive ornamental border and below this the lower quarter consists of nine small coupons on which the interest payments are recorded all but one signed and heavily cancelled. Several large "Cancelled" and "Interest Paid" inkstamps cross these coupons the main boilerplate text and the signatures area. All in all a most attractive piece -- scarce from the earliest days of this important undertaking. unknown
