Pike’s Peak Sampling and Reduction Co. Stock Certificate
Incorporated in Colorado in El Paso County. Cert. #113 issued to James McCombs on 28 April for 100 shares. Signed by A.J. Denton, president, and by E. J. Hadfield, secretary. U/C. Printer not noted. Datelined Colorado Springs. This company possibly included assay works, and was probably in the Cripple Creek district, given its early date. This James McCombs could be the same man who purchased the Commercial Men's’ Gold Mining and Milling Company stock in 1900, listed above, which makes it seem likely that both properties were in the Cripple Creek area. Not listed in the Carson City Directory or our catalog index. Fold creases and some staining on margins, but VF.City: County: El PasoState: CO
