Additional commentary.
1.
I do not know how I came to have this, but it is a 75th anniversary yardstick for the Central National Bank of Columbia. It's in good condition showing some use but that is a good thing in my perspective. Just thought maybe you would like to have this to hang somewhere.
It's not a big item but it is 126 years old. Let me know if you're interested in having it and I could get it to you. If you are interested, please contact an editor who will let Ms. Brown know. Note To Editor only visible by Contributor and editor
