Rare! Number 249 for 26,561 shares to P Reddy in 1875. Signed by Hughes & Holland(?)  This is a hard to find GT Brown, African American, lithographer. Reddy signs on back. One assessment stamp on back. Defiance owned by Pat Reddy. Reddy moved to California to strike it rich in 1861. He found work mining and gambling until 1864 when he was injured in Virginia City and suffered the loss of his arm. After this incident, Reddy took up law and soon became one of the most well known criminal lawyers in the state of California. This piece has a lot going for it!
