Book: Alte Wertpapiere

Oude aandelen
the Dutch edition of Alte Wertpapiere
  • Title: Alte Wertpapiere, Bibliophila series. This little book has been published and reprinted in several languages. As far as I know there is a German, an International or English (Old Securities), a Dutch (Oude Aandelen) and a French (Actions et obligations anciennes) edition. 
  • Authors : Ulrich Drumm, Alfons W. Henseler, Erich J. May
  • ID : ISBN 9022611914 (Dutch),  ISBN: 3921846625 (German by Harenberg Kommunikation, 1978), ISBN : 9783921846629 (English)
  • Languages : see Title description
  • Number of pages : 200 (Dutch version)
  • Images : About 170, in color.
  • Indexes : none, but chapters by activity type
This small format book is actually a book containing only images of decorative bond and share certificates ordered by activity type. It is not a reference book, it is not a catalogue. The book can give the starting collector,  a good idea of what kind of certificates are available.  With a bit of luck, you can find the book in your local library, or offered as a second-hand item on Amazon Books or Ebay.
