Celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, the Museum of American Finance is holding the Wall Street Collectors Bourse, which is an annual trading session for objects of financial history. "Bourse" refers to the term used in Europe for the stock exchange. “Memorabilia of Finance” is the theme of this year's session, and it features financial collectibles related to important historical events. Archives International Auctions is hosting the auction at the end of the three-day event.

We visited with Dr. Robert Schwartz, president of Archives International Auctions, at the preview session at the museum. He highlighted some of his favorite items that will be featured in the auction.
