1919 Five Dollar TB Christmas Seal Bond

1920 Five Dollar TB Christmas Seal Bond

These Charity Bonds were receipts or tokens for large contributors, and came in as many as ten denominations, ($5, $10, $15, $25, $35, $50, $100, $500,$1,000, and blank). Designed for big contributors, they may have hung on the walls of wealthy corporations. Prices are for my choice of denomination, scarce denominations ($500, $1000, and blank) are twice the listed price. Bonds have Christmas Seal designs printed on them thru 1968, except 1941 thru 1947 came with and without Christmas Seal designs, but they can be identified by color.

Large 1911 European Stock Certificate, Tuberculosis Treatment - The antiobiotic cure for TB was developed after WW2, but in 1911 scientists were experimenting with Iodine and Radium, and clained a 30% improvment. A cure would have been worth a fortune, so I'm guessing they sold stock in the idea. But since only 2 coupons are clipped off (the coupons are folded behind the certificate), perhaps they went broke. Clearly there was no lasting results, but it was a hopeless time for those suffering from the disease, and doctors were willing to try anything. This may be the first, or at least an early, appempt to cure a disease with radiation. $15.95
