Extended Information

Founded by John D. Rockefeller in 1870, Standard Oil would become the largest Oil company in the world. It made Rockefeller the wealthiest person in history and one of the most powerful. In 1911, Standard Oil was ruled a Monopoly by the Supreme Court and subsequently broken up into 43 smaller regional companies.

Standard Oil of New Jersey (name on this Bond) continued on and became Exxon (now ExxonMobil). This rare version of the Standard Oil bond features a stamp on it "Name Changed to Exxon Corporation". It was issued in 1977 for $1000 and paid 6 1/2%. Feature an oil well in the vignette.
