A moderately circulated small size example from this Kansas City bank. John W. Hartman, Cashier and S.J. Blythe, President. Famed aviator Amelia Earhart was born in Atchison, KS. Five years to the day that American aviator Charles Lindbergh became the first pilot to accomplish a solo, nonstop flight across the Atlantic Ocean, female aviator Amelia Earhart becomes the first Pilot to repeat the feat, landing her plane in Ireland after flying across the North Atlantic. This was Earhart's second time to cross the Atlantic. In 1928, as a member of a three-person crew, she crossed the Atlantic in an aircraft while functioning as the person to keep the plane's log. For her solo transatlantic crossing in 1932, she was awarded a Distinguished Flying Cross by the U.S. Congress. 1887703-016 $5 1929 Ty. 1 Small SizeUnited StatesVF 25

Surprisingly few of the GPO variety notes survive and those that do are generally well worn. This note is an exception. Although this bank opened in 1917, it elected to wait and only issue small size notes. The officers who piloted this bank were Charles W. Phinney, Cashier and Arthur P. Hardy, President. Malden, a hilly woodland area north of the Mystic River in Middlesex County, was settled by Puritans in 1640 on land purchased in 1629 from the Pennacook tribe. It was named after Maldon, England by Joseph Hills, an early settler and landholder and was incorporated as a separate town in 1649 under the name "Mauldon". 8084357-037 $10 1929 Ty. 1 Small SizeUnited StatesVF 35 EPQ

The post office at Baudette began in 1900, first called "Port Hyland", after postmaster Daniel Hyland. The name was changed to "Baudette" in 1901.
