I feel bad that both plates were damaged by my recovery, but I am satisfied that I got them and the dates of them.
I sure have no idea why back in 1906 the made plates for checks, including date, amount, signatures all on the plate.
Anybody have an explanation.
The larger check is from the National Bank of Boyertown, which is in Pennsylvania. The amount $200 The date looks like Apr 24 1907 or 1906.
The smaller check mentions Philadelphia and Atlantic City, I cannot make out the amount, but the date is Apr 23, 1906.
Cool finds either way.
The top part of the pictures are how the plates look, which is in negative for us to read, so I flipped them in the photo program to be able to read then, that is the lower photos.
