Action Tissages de Soieries Réunis 1951 former bearer coupon vintage
AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
An old financial document, this is a bearer share issued by the company "Tissages de Soieries Réunis", visible on the front. This share has a face value of 2,500 francs and features a typical layout for French shares from the mid-20th century, with a wide decorative blue-grey border, finely printed framing, and several original handwritten signatures at the bottom. The document is dated June 4, 1951, in Paris, as indicated in the lower center.
The right side of the share features a series of detachable coupons, numbered 21 to 30, all marked with the same share number "149062". The coupons are stamped and bear the full name of the company, confirming that this is an authentic antique share with its original coupons still attached. The general presentation evokes financial documents used in France during the first half of the 20th century, with clear printing, sober colors (predominantly cream, blue-grey, and red for the stamp), and classic administrative typography.
The title "TISSAGES DE SOIERIES RÉUNIS" is printed at the top, followed by the mention "SOCIÉTÉ ANONYME AU CAPITAL DE 400.000.000 DE FRANCS DIVISÉ EN 160.000 ACTIONS DE 2.500 FRANCS". The address of the head office is in Paris, 24, Rue de la Banque. Several administrative and legal mentions are clearly visible, as well as a large red stamp "TISSAGES DE SOIERIES RÉUNIS" applied diagonally across the central part of the document.
The paper, with a slightly yellowed appearance, has a matte texture and quality printing, typical of official documents from this period. The edges appear clean, with no apparent tears on the visible side. The inscriptions are perfectly legible on the presented side, and the handwritten signatures add a historical dimension to this document.
Condition
Used document, sold as is. The visible side shows no major stains or apparent tears. The overall condition is good for a document of this era, with a natural patina due to age.
Did you know? Bearer shares were commonly used in France until the early 1980s, allowing their holder to remain anonymous. The attached coupons were detached when dividends were paid, a process now obsolete with the dematerialization of financial securities.
