Bank Correspondence

I've come across a hoard of bank correspondence from the State Bank of Wonewoc, WI.  Most of the material is dated between 1880 and 1920.  The majority of it is routine banking: transfers on account, probate, sale of property, loan inqiries, etc.  However, there several letters from national banks in Wisconsin (with banknote signers!): Madison, Milwaukee, Menomonie, Eau Claire, Green Bay, Stevens Point, Baraboo, LaCrosse, etc.  Still sorting through the letters, but will post some for sale shortly.  If you have any requests, please email me and I'll see what I can do.
