Butler Brothers
Organized in 1887
The modern
"Department Store" is the outgrowth of the cheap counter business
originated by Butler Brothers in Boston around 1878. They became a
mammoth business in New York and Chicago. Originally they sold (to
merchants only) by means of a catalogue, which they called their
"Drummer", never sending out any traveling man. This
catalogue is depicted (half or in whole) on the certificates,
illustrated with a train.
All certificates
below have brown borders. All have a small paper rest from a document
on the left
border. I have seen them for sale on the internet for $ 80 !

When incorporated in 1911 they owned > 1000 of the at the time
famous "Five and Dime Stores"', which sold everyday household and
personal items at bargain prices. They made their
profits through high volumes with low profit margins. In 1913 the
Woolworth Building was erected in New York City, in that time the
highest
building in the world (241 meters / 792 feet). In 1924 F.W.Woolworth

shops were closed in 1998. (source: Bob Kerstein, 2003). Read more on Wikipedia !
