Description: Original Illustration for a Domtar Stock Certificate.Original ink and gouache Art Deco style drawing on Crescent Illustration Board, dated December 22, 1964 (upper right). This piece is from the archives of the British American Banknote Company, sold at auction on December 2, 1997 in New York City by Spink American (Christie's). Used to create engraved vignettes for stock certificates for Domtar (noted upper right). The work depicts various aspects of the company: paper making, wood, forestry, chemistry, factories, and more.A striking work for your collection. The premise is simple: The more expertly rendered the artwork on a note or bond, the more difficult to counterfeit. This fine example suggests global industrial dominance in scientific terms. Excellent condition. The company Domtar still exists, and is in fact:" the largest integrated manufacturer and marketer of uncoated freesheet paper in North America, and one of the largest manufacturers of pulp in the world. Our network of 12 pulp and paper mills and 9 manufacturing and converting facilities gives us approximately 2.7 million tons of papermaking capacity and 1.5 million air-dried metric tons (ADMT) of market pulp capacity annually to help us to serve our customers, support our employees and strengthen our communities."
