Owner's Description

Portland, ME The National Traders Bank Ch. # (N)1451 SN $10 1902 Red Seal Fr. 613 PMG 25 repeater binary SN 1010/U575048 pp B/107 dated June 28, 1905. A very scarce Portland bank which issued First Charters, Brown Backs, and Red Seals only before closing in 1908. Barely a dozen notes of all types are known with with this note only the third Red Seal of any denomination to be reported. A bold red overprint and delicate pen signatures of J. (John) M. Gould, Cashier and F.O. Conant, Vice President (1903-1908)(President would have been Leander W. Fobes) are the traits of this pleasing PMG Very Fine 25 example that just has a couple of minor edge tears. From the Nate Smith Collection of Maine National Bank Notes.
