Scripophily

Seeing the obituary of the original president of the First Women's Bank, about which there's not much out there on the Web (it appears mainly when cited in the resumes of those now, apparently, beginning to drop like flies). There's at least one document regarding the First Women's Bank catalogued among the Bernard Rapoport papers, apparently now resting here in Austin and garnering who knows what sort of tax deduction for everything from Christmas cards to extended correspondence with various luminaries of the state and national Democratic party. When I get around to framing all those other things I plan to get around to framing, maybe the stock certificate for the First Women's Bank should be among them.
