AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Visual Description

This document, shown in the photo, is a bearer share issued by the company "La Route Plastique," dated 1963, as clearly indicated by the central inscription. The certificate consists of a main sheet adorned with a wide brown geometric border, typical of 1960s administrative graphics. The title "LA ROUTE PLASTIQUE" appears at the top, followed by the mentions "Société Anonyme au capital de 5.000.000 de francs" (Public limited company with a capital of 5,000,000 francs) and "Action de cent francs au porteur entièrement libérée" (Bearer share of one hundred francs, fully paid-up).

The central area of the document features a fine patterned background, with the share number "048503" printed in a dedicated box, accompanied by the date "1963." A red triangle is also visible in the center, containing the inscription "La Route Plastique Société Anonyme," which serves as a logo or official stamp. Two handwritten signatures are visible at the bottom, attesting to the authenticity of the act.

On the right side of the document, a series of detachable coupons is perfectly visible. Each coupon bears the mention "La Route Plastique," the share number (048503), and a sequential numbering. Several coupons are stamped with the same red triangle as on the main page, used here as a mark of cancellation or validation. The entire document is printed on paper with a slightly yellowed appearance, typical of administrative documents from this era, with a visual texture evoking the quality of financial prints from the mid-20th century.

The graphic style, typography, and layout of the elements confirm a manufacturing date from the early 1960s, consistent with the inscribed date and the logo design. No major defects are visible on the exposed side: the paper appears well-preserved, with no apparent creases or tears visible on this side.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. The document is generally well-preserved for its age, with clear colors and inscriptions on the visible side. Slight patina and signs of age possible, typical of original financial documents from this period.
