RAILROAD STOCK CERTIFICATES BOOK SOUGHT

  In response to last week's request, Joe Boling writes:
  "My abstract for ANS, NL136: COX, TERRY, with SAM
  WITHERS. Stocks and Bonds of North American Railroads:
  collectors' guide with values. Port Clinton, Ohio, BNR Press
  1995. 256pp illus. ISBN 0-931960-46-0.

  8559 certificate types and varieties, from hundreds of railroads
  (all known issues from over 17,200 railroads known to have
  existed in North America), are listed, described, and valued.
  Almost 50 pages of background to collecting these certificates,
  including thumbnail biographies of over 230 prominent issuers
  and signers of certificates, supplement the catalog listings.

  Additional info of interest to the bibliophile: 4to perfect bound
  (illustrated card covers).

  The listings are alphabetical by company name, so there is no
  way to isolate (for enumeration) the Canadian listings.
