Book excerpt: "In 1690, the Massachusetts Bay Colony became the first government in the Western world to print paper money, the imagery for which initiated an indigenous American art form of remarkable dynamism and originality. After the Revolutionary War, disillusioned by how quickly its promiscuous printing of Continental currency had led to hyperinflation, the government of the United States left it to private institutions, such as state-chartered banks, to carry on this American tradition. Bank notes, adorned with a vast variety of images, soon became the fledgling country's primary currency. In 1861, in response to the pressures of the Civil War, the federal government began to take charge of the paper-money supply by creating a national currency and a national banking system. At the same time, the Confederate States of America was creating a competing self-image, which was also heavily indebted to bank-note vignettes. Issued in 1896, the Silver Certificates Series, a collaboration between government engravers and well-known artists, marked the apex of American currency design. With the explosion of the number of banks operating throughout the country, the imagery on paper currency provided the nation with its most widely distributed iconography (some estimates number over 15,000 different vignettes). Although security printing enjoyed a niche of its own, it was also closely involved in the overall development of American art. Of all of America's arts, paper money reached the widest audience in its exaltation and popularization of White America's imagined self. Like painting, it engaged in a larger cultural discourse, communicating in a public forum a national identity and purpose. By instilling confidence in the value of the money and in the country itself, this imagery, the product of American creativity and technical ingenuity, conjured up a narrative for a nation that was without precedent or peers"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WHITMAN ENCYCLOPEDIA OF OBSOLETE PAPER MONEY Volume 4: New England, Part 2: Massachusetts, Book 2 The Whitman Encyclopedia of Obsolete Paper Money is a multiple-volume study of American currency issued by state-chartered banks from 1782 to 1866, before the modern era of National Banks and the Federal Reserve. Volume 4 is a guide to Massachusetts, specifically the towns of Hallowell to Yarmouth. It's a companion to volume 3, and between them the two volumes cover the entire Bay State. He gives the history of every Massachusetts town and city from Hallowell to Yarmouth, as well as of every bank in those towns that issued this uniquely American currency. Each note is studied, and hundreds are pictured in full color, with information on values, rarity, significant auction results, grading, advice for collectors, and more. The Whitman Encyclopedia of Obsolete Paper Money is a monumental work. Essential for collectors, it is equally valuable for American historians. Volume 4 is an immersion in the life of New England and our nation from the Revolution to the Civil War. "Destined to become a landmark event in the unfolding history of U.S. paper-money collecting. These works should be on the shelves of our institutions of higher education and in historical societies of all the states covered."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating but often overlooked topic is the establishment of currency in a new nation. The process involves not only a host of unknown and complicated political factors, but also economics and the culture of the new nation. In A History of American Currency, Yale Professor William G. Sumner examines the development of the monetary system in the United States, from the colonial era through the Civil War. He noted that the earliest British settlers brought with them virtually no money; the English government wouldn't allow it, and the Puritans had little or no use for it. Gradually, the settlers traded wampumpeag with their Native American neighbors, and eventually currency was developed to pay soldiers, finance expeditions, and trade with other nations. Sumner also covers the English Bank Restriction of 1797, the Bullion Report of 1810, and the development of Austrian paper money.WILLIAM GRAHAM SUMNER was a professor of political and social science at Yale University and became known as a Social Darwinist and advocate of the laissez faire principle in economics. Besides writing a number of books on sociology, history, and economics, he was also influential in the movement to modernize the American university system.
