Among the historic independent film company's earliest existing stock certificates.

Following the success of STAGECOACH, Ford formed independent Argosy Pictures with producer Merian C. Cooper. Some of the director's best films were Argosy productions, including THE QUIET MAN, FORT APACHE and SHE WORE A YELLOW RIBBON. The company was dissolved in 1956.


This is one of many interesting items we acquired from John Ford's estate.
