FREE: (2) $1000 US Bank Notes 1840 Advertising Ephemera

The listing, (2) $1000 US Bank Notes 1840 Advertising Ephemera has ended.

Here are 2 examples of "official, genuine, legal reproductions" of the 1840, $1000 note of The Bank of the United States. These are well-known replicas bearing the Serial Number 8894.

☞ ☞ ☞ THESE HAVE NO MONETARY VALUE!
They were created as collector "space fillers" for very rare collectibles that most people can never acquire, as educational items, and as advertising promotions.

These are offered as advertising memorabilia with collector interest.

As replicas they have the word "COPY" imprinted in the margin (see detail image) and are printed on a brittle, yellowish-brown "antiqued" paper which simulates parchment.

There are only 2 bills being auctioned, both shown in the 1st image. The other images show their details.
The top note in the 1st image is of a one-sided copy that was reproduced in the 1960's as a promotion given away with the purchase of a box of cereal.

The bottom note in the 1st image is printed on both sides and shows clearly that it is an ad for over-the-counter weight-loss drugs of the ALVA/AMCO Pharmacal Co., Inc.: diurex pills, waistlets gum and thinz-span.
