First National Bank of Morristown signed by Thomas Nast

Check signed by Thomas Nast (September 27, 1840 – December 7, 1902) a German-born American caricaturist and editorial cartoonist who is considered to be the "Father of the American Cartoon."


Among his notable works were the creation of the modern version of Santa Claus, and Uncle Sam (the male personification of the American people), as well as the political symbols of both major United States political parties: the Republican elephant and the Democratic donkey.

Born in the barracks of Landau, Germany (now in Rhine Palatinate), the son of a trombonist in the 9th regiment Bavarian band. The elder Nast's socialist political convictions put him at odds with the Bavarian government, and in 1846 he left Landau, enlisting first on a French man-of-war and subsequently on an American ship. He sent his wife and children to New York City, and at the end of his enlistment in 1849 he joined them there.

Thomas Nast's passion for drawing was apparent from an early age, and he was enrolled for about a year of study with Alfred Fredericks and Theodore Kaufmann and at the school of the National Academy of Design. Nast attended school in New York City from the age of six to fifteen, when he was forced to drop out due to financial problems. Thomas had problems adjusting to life in America and never took well to school. He spent his entire school career on the verge of flunking out and consequently was not an especially good speller. After school he started working in 1855 as a draftsman for Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper; three years afterward, for Harper's Weekly.

Collectible Harlan & Hollingsworth Company Blotter

A "Blotter" for the Harlan & Hollingsworth Company of Wilmington, Delaware. This was a firm that constructed ships and railroad cars during the 19th century into the 20th century.

Mahlon Betts, a carpenter, helped construct many prominent buildings in the Wilmington, DE. He later branched out into foundry work. In 1836, Betts partnered with machinist Samuel Pusey and began manufacturing rail cars. The following year, cabinetmaker Samuel Harlan joined the firm.

By 1839, the Betts, Pusey & Harlan claimed to have manufactured 39 passenger and 28 freight cars. They hired Jacob F. Sharp, a former house carpenter, to build railroad cars.

In 1841, Elijah Hollingsworth, brother-in-law of Harlan, bought out Pusey and the firm became known as Betts, Harlan & Hollingsworth. In 1849 Mahlon Betts withdrew from the firm. In 1858, the company became known as Harlan, Hollingsworth & Co.

State(s): Delaware, Massachusetts, New York, Rhode Island; years: 1800s-1900s. Superb!
