Inc. in Colorado. Extremely low number TWO, issued for 20 shares to CN Priddy, company secretary, on Jan. 20th, 1893 in Leadville. Also signed by president DH Dougan. Not cancelled. Black border and print, vignette of the hotel! Pinholes, deep folds with some separation. Company president DH Dougan was mayor of Leadville in 1881 and 1882. This company is an earlier name for what is now known again as the Tabor Grand Hotel, built in Leadville in 1883-85 and located on the corner of 7th and Harrison. The Leadville Hotel Company had set out to build a first-class hotel in Leadville in 1880 but were short on money. Tabor stepped in and the hotel bore his name. It had 117 rooms, steam heat, and a hotel lobby floor inlaid with silver dollars. It was bought by the Kitchen Bros. in 1887 and renamed the Kitchen Hotel. They sold it in 1891 and it was renamed the Vendome. It operated into the 1930s. [Ref: Colorado's Historic Hotels, Clark] State: Colorado City: Leadville Date: 1893
