If your objective is to determine if a share can be redeemed in another existing firm, if there was a liquidation distribution, or if the share has only collectors value, then the Goldsheet Obsolete Securities Page may help you on your way. It is run by R Johnson. See website. http://www.goldsheetlinks.com

And at http://stocksearchintl.com  they will help research the potential economic value of your old uncancelled stock at a fee of $ 85 / company.

http://www.scripophily.com is another very interesting American site, run by Bob Kerstein, who asked me to make this link. They may also have stock search facilities
