Hutto, Texas. $10 1902 Plain Back. Fr. 627. Hutto NB. Charter #9625. PCGS Banknote Fine 12. Named for a local landowner by the name of James Hutto who had settled in Texas in 1847, Hutto is perhaps known best for its iconic mascot. In 1915 roughly five years after the Hutto National Bank (Charter# 9625) had organized, the town supposedly played host to a circus train which had stopped to take on passengers. Animal handlers with the circus temporarily lost control of a hippopotamus which was later successfully herded back on the train, but not before the incident left its mark on the memories of local residents which today is responsible for hundreds if not thousands of concrete hippos found throughout present-day Hutto as well as the mascot of Hutto High School. Yet in numismatic terms, Hutto is a tough "one-bank town" where only just four non-institutional notes are recorded including this well-circulated $10 Plain Back issued during the 1920s. Burdened with another desirable trait by virtue distinct signatures attributable to Cashier E.E. Brown and President W.H. Farley, bidders are advised that this is indeed a rare opportunity for the collector looking to represent a bank which stands today at the fringes of the Austin suburbs. Estimate: $800 - $1,200. Provenance: From the Jack Copeland Currency Collection, Part IV. Click here for certification details from PCGS Banknote.
