Two Yards of Money From Uncut Bank Notes
Gus Eubach in eastern Kansas cashed numerous drafts after a busy month selling fence machines. A cashier handed him uncut national bank note sheets, each with three sixteen dollar bills and a thirty dollar note, and he took ten sheets. He pasted them end to end, claiming two yards of money to restore his eyes and nerves. When paying mail, he spread the roll before customers, slicing off sums with shelre. Locals were astonished and some declined the money. One man refused the series for fear of counterfeit risk.
