Scarce 1863 Clark, Gruber & Co. Check

Leavenworth City, KS, Banking House of Clark, Gruber & Co., Check, Sept. 18, 1863, Extremely Fine, Cut Cancels.
Haxby KS-Unlisted. A very scarce check issued by this multi-state bank. The firm issued demand notes in Kansas and remainders and proofs on the Denver notes are also known (now $100,000 plus auction records!). Printed all in red, issued and lightly canceled. Revenue stamp at the left end. Quite a popular check and well collected with currency and Territorial Gold Coins. Only the third we have handled and one brought a $1,000 hammer in intense competition in the May 2008 Sale. Interestingly, without a serial number, but signed and issued.



Early American will accept payment by check or credit card.
