Arizona Territory incorporation. #501 of 775 authorized, $1000 6% 30 year Second Mortgage Income bond due 1916. Issued Jan. 1, 1886. Signed T.S. Bullock President. BROWN, embossed seal, vignettes: bottom allegorical female, top 4-6-0 locomotive at depot. "1000" in ornate box brown underprint, 2 coupons attached. Very ornate bond. In 1885 one of the biggest problems was the cost to transport ore by wagon from the mines in Congress and Yarnell. A cheaper mode of transportation had to be found. At that time, the Atlantic and Pacific Railway crossed the 35th parallel in northern Arizona Territory, making the possibility of a railroad more of a reality. The P & AC fixed this.
