Description
The Union Pacific Railroad (UP) is the largest rail transportation company in the US. Established in 1862, it has grown both by construction and by acquisition; its system now includes such railroads as the Western Pacific, Missouri Pacific, Rio Grande, Chicago & North Western, and the Missouri-Kansas-Texas. Its system stretches from Chicago and New Orleans in the east to Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle in the west.
For auction is a common stock certificate from the UP, dated May 22, 1980. It is for 100 shares of stock. The vignette shows three railroad workers in various jobs. The certificate, which measures appx 11 1/4 x 8 inches, is printed on typical stock security bond paper. It is in very good condition, with no rips or tears. All writing/markings are from its issuance and use. It has the customary cancellation punch holes and staple holes from documents once affixed.
A nice addition to someone's UP collection.
