1926, Massachusetts. Stock certificate for 15 shares. Orange. Signed as president by Marquis M. Converse. In 1908 Marquis M. Converse created the Converse Rubber Company. By 1917, a rubber-soled, canvas sneaker, dubbed a high-top because of its ankle-high cut, became the forerunner of the legendary Converse All-Star. Over 100 yeares later, the same firm, now named "Converse, Inc.", continues as a presence in the athletic shoe business. Some folds, very fine. Uncancelled.
