Description:

(JEAN PAUL GETTY) (1892-1976) American businessman who accumulated over a billion dollars in profit from his oil investments. A great relic, Getty's bankbook from The German Savings and Loan Society in San Francisco, Special Savings Account No. 253159 with his name penned on the cover, and bearing a single entry, a $500 deposit on Sep. 28, 1914. Very good. Especially interesting in that Germany had become fully-involved in World War I, against America's allies, less than two months earlier. $200-300
