A scarce compilation of annually issued sheets of "Stock Fluctuations in Bank, Insurance, Railroad and Manufacturing stocks, Government Securities, State, City and Railroad Bonds, and other Companies sold at the Boston Broker's Board, and by Auction, with the semiannual dividends paid by each." Comprises 30 annual issues covering the years 1870 through 1902 (with exception of 1896-7, which were apparently never published), recording annual price fluctuations on the Boston Stock Market.
A rare piece, preserving stock market ephemera from one of the most tumultuous periods of American financial history.
