Item Details

Description

Railroad Check Signed by Famous Western Expressman Ben Holladay, 1870. Outstanding check from the Oregon & California Railroad Company, signed by famed western expressman Ben Holladay as president, Portland, Oregon, July 9, 1870. Payment charged to the North Pacific Transportation Company of San Francisco. Very nice vignette of steam locomotive at left, with orange imprint revenue stamp. Measures approximately 3.5" x 9."

Ben Holladay moved to California in 1852 where he developed profitable stage and express routes. By the spring of 1864, Holladay had acquired a dominant portion of the stage, mail, and freighting business between the Missouri River and Salt Lake City. Known as the "Stagecoach King," Holladay eventually controlled 2,670 miles of stage lines and was among the largest individual employers in the United States. Holladay sold his routes to Wells Fargo Express in 1866 for $1.5 million and moved to Oregon.

The Oregon & California Railroad Company was organized in 1869 by Ben Holladay along with the Western Oregon Railroad (1870) and the Oregon Central Railroad (1871), which later incorporated into the Oregon & California. In 1887 the Oregon Central became part of the Southern Pacific Railroad system.

Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 100-110 lots per hour. On some occasions the Live Auctioneer bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now AS insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject a Live Auctioneer Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the Live Auctioneers live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you AS the winning bidder. By bidding via Live Auctioneers, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since Live Auctioneer bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. IN most cases the floor responds before the Live Auctioneer bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie Live Auctioneer bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through Live Auctioneers carry a 19.50% Buyer's Premium with a $9 minimum Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid. This lot is being auctioned IN conjunction with a live floor auction by Heritage Auctions. All final auction and invoice information will be supplied by Heritage Auctions, and all other information should be considered preliminary.
