Stock Certificate from the Colorado Springs Rapid Transit Railway Co. Certificate number 95 issued in 1892 at Colorado Springs to A.A. McGovevhy(?). Signed by E.J. Eaton, Vice President, and A.S. Lawton(?). Size 11.5 by 8 inches. In average condition. Cancelled. Trolley car vignette. The Colorado Springs Rapid Transit Railway was chartered in 1890. They bought the system created by the Colorado Springs and Manitou Street Railway who had began horsecar trolley service in 1887.
