Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Private Telegraphic Code of Henry Clews & Co Author: Henry Clews & Co. Publisher: Henry Clews & Co., New York For March 1891 and August 1900 Binding: Burgundy leather binding with gilt titling Condition: Mint Description: A beautiful example of the Private Cipher Code of Henry Clews & Co., issued for use…by the prominent Wall Street banking and brokerage firm during the period 1891-1900. Bound in burgundy leather with bright gilt titling, the volume remains in exceptional, mint condition. Cipher code books such as this were produced for internal communication within financial houses and allowed complex financial instructions and market information to be transmitted securely and efficiently by telegraph. Because they were working tools of the firm and not widely distributed, surviving copies are scarce—particularly in this outstanding condition. An attractive and historically significant piece of late 19th-century American financial history, ideal for collectors of banking, Wall Street, telegraphy, and cipher or code books. Condition: Mint condition. Burgundy leather binding is clean and bright with sharp gilt lettering. Pages are fresh and well preserved. An exceptional copy. Size: Octavo (approx. 6 x 9 inches).
