Description

This remarkable bill of exchange, dated January 27, 1906, was issued by H.L. Edwards & Co., a Dallas-based cotton trading firm led by H.L. Edwards, a prominent amateur golfer. The bill, drawn in sterling, is payable to Messrs. Haarbleicher & Schumann in London and subsequently endorsed by Goldman, Sachs & Co., illustrating a robust financial network between the United States and the United Kingdom in the early 20th century.

The document includes embossed stamps, endorsement seals, and precise handwritten details, with prominent stamps from the London & Westminster Bank in Lothbury. This historic financial instrument not only showcases early banking practices but also highlights the involvement of Goldman Sachs in facilitating international trade during its formative years.

This item is ideal for collectors of historical financial documents, banking memorabilia, or those interested in the history of Goldman Sachs. With its association to Dallas and H.L. Edwards & Co., a notable cotton trading firm, and its endorsement by a leading financial institution, this piece is a valuable artifact for any collection.
