Deal Takes All Cabell Stamps
Huntington West Virginia AP A $3.5 million real estate deal between the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway and its real estate affiliate required heavy tax stamps. Clerk Keith Arthur lacked sufficient stamps and ordered a supply from Charleston as the deed to the former Sylvania Electric Products plant was recorded. The C O paid $7,700 for stamps covering the transaction which exceeded typical regional tax stamp needs. The deal marks a record transaction for the clerk's office. The Sylvania building serves as the railway’s operating HQ after a $1.8 million remodeling completed last April. Chesapeake Realty bought the structure from the General Services Administration in 1961 for $800,000.
