Colorado Checks & Drafts

 


Presented by the Denver Stock Exchange.

Your source for historic and collectable Colorado stock & bond certificates, checks & drafts, and ephemera.


Colorado has a deep history in mining with countless towns springing up virtually overnight to support the local mines and miners.   Other towns sprung up because of one of the many railroads that crossed the state.  What ever the reason for their existence, banks soon took their place in the burgeoning communities.   With the banks came checks and drafts as a means of completing financial transactions.   Checks and drafts give the collector a unique opportunity to look into the daily lives of every-day men and women as well as evidence of the financial transactions of some of the states most famous personalities.   The following pages are just a sampling of the many hundreds of thousands of checks and drafts that were undoubtedly exchanged in the history of Colorado business transactions.  

Below is a sample of various checks and drafts from around Colorado.  We hope you enjoy them....
