Description: Uncanceled $1,000 Gold Bond printed by Western Bank Note and Engraving Company Chicago. Superb! In Pennsylvania, Maryland, and West Virginia, several large independent regionals competed with the Bell system. The American Union Telephone Co., centered in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, was formed in 1906 through the merger of twelve independent companies, including the competing exchanges in Harrisburg, Altoona, Lancaster, Williamsport, and Chester. The Keystone Telephone Co. owned exchanges in and around Philadelphia, including Trenton and Camden. The Consolidated Telephone Company covered the territory to the north and west of Philadelphia, operating exchanges and toll lines connecting Allentown, Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, and Reading. The Pittsburgh and Allegheny system connected independent exchanges in the western parts of the state. The National Telephone Co. owned exchanges in Wheeling, Steubenville, and other towns in West Virginia. Each of those systems were connected to each other through an organization known as the Eastern Traffic Association, a clearing house which accounted for and divided joint toll revenues and coordinated maintenance and operations.
