This historic document has an ornate border around it with a very rare color vignette of an eagle "Old Abe" sitting on a globe. In 1865, J. I. Case Company adopted the Civil War eagle "Old Abe" as their logo. Jerome Increase Case took a small, hand-powered threshing machine from Williamstown, New York to Rochester, Wisconsin, where he fixed the machine and established the J I Case company. In 1843, J I Case thresher moved to Racine, Wisconsin, in order to have better access to water and facilities where more threshers could be built and repaired. Case created the J I Case Company. He was later recognized as the first American to create a steam engine for agricultural use. Case won first place at the 1879 Paris Exposition in France for his thresher; this was the first thresher sent abroad by the Case company and was the first of thousands which would later be exported internationally. The Case company even produced automobiles between 1911 and 1925. This beautiful certificate is very rare. Stamp canceled with two fold lines and cut cancels thru signatures. Stub attached at left.
