Bradshaw Mountain Railroad Company Stock Signed by Edward Berwind

Bradshaw Mountain Railroad Company stock signed by Edward Berwind.

Stock issued to and signed on verso and attached statement by Edward Berwind (1848-1936). Founder of the Berwind-White Coal Mining Company. Considered to be one of the world's largest individual owners of coal properties, Berwind worked closely with J.P. Morgan in the consolidation, organization, integration and expansion of his large coal operation.
The Bradshaw Mountain Railroad was built to serve the mines of Arizona's Bradshaw Mountains. These mines proved unproductive though, and the line served only as a paper railroad subsidiary of the Santa Fe, Prescott and Phoenix Railway.
