Here is an original uncut sheet of four Civil War New Orleans bank notes. These notes are true works of art as much as they are a bank note. This is a group of 4 original $5.00 notes from the Citizens Bank of Louisiana in Shreveport, Louisiana. These were never issued as you can tell by the blanks where the names and signatures would have gone. The notes display superbly and was never issued and it is from the pre-Civil War era as they were not printed after the Civil War. It has the 2 Goddess scene in the center. If you notice down in the bottom center of the note it has the "SHREVEPORT" location of the bank. The back of the note has the beautiful pale red ink tones with the large trio of "5"'s with the French that translate as "CITIZENS’ BANK OF LOUISIANA SHREVEPORT". You can tell that these notes were crafted like a work of art and not just printed as were so many of the pieces of the day. The overall size of each note measures 7-1/8th inches by 3-1/8th inches in size. The sheet itself measures 13 inches by 7-1/2 inches in overall size. It is in nice unissued condition with some chips along the edges. This one is ready to frame up on your wall. What a fantastic display piece! Item #: B3413 Shipping Weight:
