Well, it's almost Christmas and thought I'd share some of my personal favorite 'pieces of paper' that highlight the season. Merry Christmas to all

Nice! The art work brings back a lot of memories from the 1950s. Also noted the Canton check from 1917. I didn't know that banks had the Christmas clubs that far back.

 

Merry Christmas and Happy Collecting in the New Year
