N.p.: Peoria and Hannibal Railroad Company, n.y. [1850s]. Handbill. Small 8vo (7 3/4" X 5¼"). Near fine. Very slight age toning. Handsome printed "Certificate of Stock" for shares in this Midwest locomotive concern, with standard boilerplate text, with blanks (none filled in) for shareholder's name, number of shares, amount paid, date, etc., as well as blank areas for the usual secretary and president's signatures. Some elaborate borders and elaborate typefaces. Altogether an attractive and evocative item of railroad ephemera.
