AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
This document is a registered certificate of ordinary shares for the company "EmailleRies Réunies", a public limited company with a capital of 6,500,000 francs, with its registered office in Paris. The certificate visible in the photo is presented open, showing the entirety of the front side, with a wide decorative red border typical of financial documents from the early 20th century. The ornamental frame highlights the title "EMAILLERIES RÉUNIES" in red capital letters, accompanied by the monogram "ER" in a medallion to the left and right of the title.
The document is printed in red and black on paper that has a slightly yellowed appearance from age, which reinforces its ancient and authentic character. The mention "Registered certificate of ordinary shares of 100 francs" is clearly visible, as well as serial number 000135, the name of the notary (N. Bourdel, Notary in Paris), and spaces provided for the holder's information. The lower part of the document includes a dividend payment table and a registered shares statement, both printed in red, with empty boxes for annotations from the period.
The graphic style and typography used, as well as the mention of capital in francs, are characteristic of the 1920s and the interwar period in France. This type of certificate, for administrative and patrimonial use, served to attest to the ownership of bearer or registered shares, here for the company EmailleRies Réunies, specialized in the production of industrial and decorative enamel.
The document features a wide frame, geometric patterns, and symmetrical layout, typical of securities from this period. The printed signature of the executive is visible at the bottom of the certificate, as well as the blank areas reserved for the inscription of the holder's name and the recording of dividends.
The front side presented here has no visible stamp or handwritten annotation in the photograph. The overall condition appears very satisfactory, with no major folds, tears or apparent missing parts, with the exception of a slight natural yellowing of the paper, consistent with the age of the object.
Condition
Used document, sold as is. Shows slight yellowing of the paper with no visible structural defects on the shown side. Printed inscriptions and decorations are clear and well preserved.
Did you know? Old shares, like this registered certificate, were often printed with rich patterns to limit counterfeiting and enhance their official value. French enamel companies experienced significant growth at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century, particularly for urban signage, advertising plaques, and decorative enamel objects.
