- New York, NY - Leather Manufacturers' Bank $10 18__ NY-1685 G10. Proof. PCGS Very Choice New 64. This proof engraved and printed by Rawdon, Wright, Hatch & Co., New-York features a complementary allegorical vignette for the title. Occupational titles, a topic collected for decades by National Bank Note collectors, are also extremely relevant to Obsolete note students. This example was printed on India paper and affixed to a yellow sheet (noted as "Mounted on Card Stock"). At left, a cherub sharpening a tool operates a foot-powered grinder with a water reservoir on top. At right, a gaucho (early cowboy) is on the range. The sole end panel at left shows a "10" on a lathe work background. This wonderfully styled proof was in the comprehensive Guevrekian New York Obsolete collection sale conducted by NASCA in 1977. The $50 proof from the series, also obtained from the Guevrekian sale, realized $1,880 in the Newman Part VI sale. Noted as "Hole Punch Cancelled" only through the India paper and "Mounted on Cardstock." A charming title and proof. Ex:NASCA, Jack Guevrekian Collection Sale, January 21-22, 1977, lot 475; Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $1410.00. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18509. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- New York, NY - Franklin Bank of the City of New York $500 18__ NY-1610 UNL Proof. PCGS Choice About New 58 Apparent. This $500 demand note proof from the Franklin Bank, engraved and printed by Abner Reed without an imprint, is the companion to the $1,000 proof we sold in Newman Part VI. The series was not present in the Abner Reed archive proof book, once owned by F.C.C. Boyd. The Reed book was disassembled in the late 1970s for eventual sale in 1983 (NASCA Abner Reed sale) and 1999 (Stack's Americana Sale.) The core New York proofs from that archive and the Leney & Rollinson archive book (also owned by Boyd at one time) were all sold by 1999. Our survey of many auction sales with New York notes and proofs yielded no examples from this Franklin Bank demand note series (only Post Notes as plated in Haxby from the Boyd-Ford book). In the vignette at the top, a United States frigate with two gun decks sails away. Two sailboats are in the channel with the lighthouse ahead. Numeric counters in ornate ovals are at each side. An oval-framed Franklin cameo is at the base. Perpendicular textual denominations between "500" are in both end panels: white type on black at left and the reverse at right. The only example we have seen and exceptionally well styled. Noted as "Pen Cancelled," with squiggles across the signature blocks and "Stains," which consist of some modest, scattered foxing. The $1,000 proof from the series sold for $3,055 in the same PCGS designation. Equally desirable and a stylish proof. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $1880.00. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18508. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- New York, NY - Continental Bank $5 18__ NY-1550 G8 SENC. Proof. PCGS Choice About New 58. A marvelous title with a quintet (5 portraits = 5 dollars as a denomination protector) of Continental Army generals' portraits comprising the ends. An impressive India paper on cardstock proof engraved and printed by Rawdon, Wright, Hatch & Edson, New-York. The five distinguished men and an equal amount of allegorical women appear on this $5 note. At top center, at the shore, a large "5" is in front of standing Justice. The rest of the quintet is seated. In the background at left, ships are at sail; at right, a train travels east. The portrait attributions are difficult and not the household names of the Revolutionary War. At left, General Joseph Warren (after John Singleton Copley), who fell at Bunker Hill(top); Israel Putnam(at bottom). The upper right portrait has not been attributed by us; at center right is "Mad" Anthony Wayne, adapted from a painting; at bottom right is Henry Knox (the vignette also seen on Canton Bank, China, Maine). An extremely rare proof. The Ford VIII sale in January 2005 had an example on which only Putnam was identified by the cataloger. Noted as "Cut Cancelled," comprising razor thin slits in the signature blocks of the India paper only, and "Mounted on Cardstock" as made. Wide margined and with a Gem appearance. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $2820.00. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18507. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.
