NY Stock Transfer Tax stamps on Stock Certificates

(Use your BACK button or click here to return to the main page)

Stock Transfer Tax Stamps are typically affixed to memorandums. It is much less likely to find them on an actual stock certificate.  (The ratio is something like for every 10,000 memos with stock transfer tax stamps, there is one stamped stock certificate.)  Below are some amazing examples provided to me by Michael Mahler.  Many thanks to him for sharing these beautiful documents with us.
