Max Hensley writes:
"The featured article in the August 2021 issue is about the 33,750 BP price for the unique $2.5 million capitalization Standard Oil stock sold by SPINK in its May e-sale. This makes it one of the scripophily kings, and quite a bargain compared to comparable coins and paper money.
"Three issues come with the IBSS membership for $35/yr at

Max adds:
"I enjoyed that piece about the 1870 20 Yen. Cross-cultural writings and artifacts always have interested me. I was reminded of The Last Samarai movie about the depicted battle and Japan's struggle to remake its society after the opening to the West.
"One area not much appreciated about the Japanese renaissance in the late 1800s is the dispersion of talented Japanese to the West, kind of a reverse transfer. I just wrote an article on one of them, Jokichi Takamine Sr., for the April 2021 Scripophily."
