National Banks got started soon after the demise of the "Obsolete Banknote Era", and their notes are still legal tender, and hence not obsolete. Nevertheless, people wanting to supplement their obsolete note collection can incorporate old checks such as the following one shown below from the Second National Bank of Ravenna, Ohio.
The Second National Bank of Ravenna, OH has been around since 1854 (Source: BankEncyclopedia.com), and bears the charter number of 350 on its National Bank Notes. Although, these notes are still legal tender, once can acquire checks from the bank to supplement their thirst for obsolete notes. The one shown below includes a nice revenue stamp as well.
Now that I have the following check, I am on a quest to search for another one, but from the First National Bank of Ravenna.
