Description

This rare trade ticket was issued in 1929 by Thomson & McKinnon for 100 shares of the North Butte Mining Company. Thomson & McKinnon was founded in 1885 and was one of the oldest brokerage houses on Wall Street. They were once among the top ten largest brokerages in the U.S. Thomson McKinnon struggled to regains its footing after the Crash of 1987 and was in talks to merge with Prudential in 1989. After the merger failed, Prudential purchased the majority of their branch offices, assets and customer accounts. In 1990 they filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

The New York Curb Exchange was established in the early 1900s. It got it's name because brokers actually traded on the "curb" outside the New York Stock Exchange. It's name became formalized as the New York Curb Exchange in 1929 and eventually was renamed the American Stock Exchange in 1953.

This one-of-a-kind trade ticket is presented in a gorgeous high quality acrylic display that weights over 1.5 lbs. Magnetically held together, the display is easy to open if want to inspect your item. Perfect for a desktop or bookshelf display.
