1896, Minnesota. Stock certificate for 50 shares. Green. Very attractive certificate with a large triple vignette at top of a steam locomotive flanked by two steam ships. Issued to and signed on verso by Lamon Vanderburgh Harkness (1850 - 1915) American businessman and a partner in Standard Oil who was one of the company's largest stockholders. Witnessed by Edward Stephen Harkness (1874 - 1940) American philanthropist. He was born in Cleveland, Ohio, one of three sons to Stephen V. Harkness, a harness-maker who invested with John D. Rockefeller and became the second-largest shareholder in Standard Oil. Hole punch cancellations not affecting either Harkness' signatures. Very Fine.
