This is an original stock certificate from The Broadway & Seventh Avenue Railroad Company, dated June 19, 1913.

Features a vignette of a green eagle with outstretched wings at the top center, with detailed engraving. The design includes an ornate border with geometric patterns and scrollwork.
You will receive the exact piece shown. As with all antique documents, time has given this certificate its own character — a one-of-a-kind artifact from 1913. The certificate shows age-appropriate wear with some fold lines and minor discoloration, and includes two punch holes through the center indicating it was redeemed.
In 1913, New York City's subway system was still in its infancy, having opened just nine years earlier, and the battle for control of Manhattan's underground was fierce. The Broadway & Seventh Avenue Railroad Company was organized to operate what would become one of the most important north-south transit arteries in Manhattan, running from the financial district through Times Square to the Upper West Side. This line was part of the Interborough Rapid Transit Company's expansion plans, spearheaded by August Belmont Jr., the financier and socialite who had bankrolled much of New York's early subway construction. The certificate was issued to the New York Railway Corporation, indicating the complex web of subsidiary companies that characterized early 20th-century transit development. The Broadway-Seventh Avenue line would eventually become part of what New Yorkers know today as the 1, 2, and 3 trains, making this certificate a tangible link to the infrastructure that transformed Manhattan from a collection of neighborhoods into a unified metropolis.
Transportation certificates from New York's early subway era are highly prized by collectors for their connection to the city's transformation into a modern metropolis. This piece represents not just a financial instrument, but a piece of urban history from the age when private companies built the infrastructure that millions rely on today. Offered as a collectible.
