Add the following to your list : I have the 1887 St. Louis (H.H. Bothe) already listed. I also have 1887 Detroit ( Issued by: Geo A. Johnston, The Cadiz-Jeweler).
Thanks for sharing this information instead of keeping it a "big secret".

Mike!! Awesome find as I've never seen that advertiser on a Detroit note! Of the three known they were all Chicago. So, I have updated the list to include yours. Here is a comparison of both notes (top/bottom)

Excellent research and sharing JC.

Looks like I have nothing new for you. Unlike you I was satisfied once I obtained both the 1887 and 1888 Detroit notes, couldn't imagine going after all the different advertisers.

Thanks Joe and glad you have both Detroit notes in your HOF collection. I knew you had them but Ive never seen the advertisers. Thus, I didnt have on my list. So I have added both of yours to the ongoing total!

This just in.. Thanks to Bob, he has an 1888 Detroit note which comes from a Providence, R.I. So, another State gets added to where these currency were distributed.

Perhaps not all that rare, but my only note (Chicago) has no advertising on it at all, front OR back. (Sorry, no back scan).
