Description
Red Bluff, California. $5 1902 Plain Back. Fr. 602. Red Bluff NB. Charter #10114. PMG Choice Fine 15.
First chartered in 1911, the Red Bluff National Bank was a short-lived venture that would see its end come about at the hands of liquidation by a bank in Bakersfield in 1928. Such a fate is certainly atypical for a Northern California bank in a time when the precursor to Bank of America was absorbing smaller banks left and right. Yet historic context aside, this bank is a rather rare institution represented only by a handful of notes in the present. Per the National Bank Note Census, a total of 11 examples are recorded from this Tehama County charter with the majority of those representing this bank's first title which remained in place through 1925. This piece is sure to delight the California-focused collector as offerings from this short-lived institution are typically years apart. PMG comments "Minor Rust."
From the Eric Agnew Collection.
Estimate: $1000.00- $1500.00
