Historic ABNC Archival Letter Discussing Uruguay Banknote Printing. Buenos Aires, 10 June 1897. 3 page letter and financial accounting sheet from Samuel B Hale & Co., the business representative for ABNC in Argentina, addressed to T.H.Freeland at ABNC. Another interesting letter with content that discusses a range of issues with Freeland. Hale discusses the status of Bolivian Stamp Paper and that he is writing to the president of the Banco De Bolivia to help deliver large stamp orders to the Bolivian Government in small batches that they would pay for in smaller amounts rather than have the stamps delivered all at once and be owe ABNC a considerable sum that may not be paid in a timely manner. Hale also discusses information on Banco Nacional Uruguay's banknote interests, Argentina's new emission discussions and that they have not made up their minds yet on the new banknote issue with the letter ending with an accounting and breakdown of ABNC's financial interests in Argentina and South America. Rare and interesting letter dealing with day to day business operations of ABNC.

Estimate: 300-600
