Brady’s Bend Iron Company Furnaces (also known as Brady’s Bend Works) is a set of historic blast furnaces and rolling mill located in Brady’s Bend Township, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania. The furnaces are constructed of stone, with the first blown into production in 1840. A second furnace was added in 1845. The furnaces and mill were established by the Great Western Iron Works in August 1839, and is considered by some the “Pittsburgh of the Middle 1800s” and “Cradle of the Iron and Steel Industry in America.” It was known as the Brady’s Bend Iron Company after 1844. The company was credited with manufacturing the first T-rails west of the Allegheny Mountains. The works closed in 1873.�� Est. $75-120 547 547 Clearfield Bituminous Coal Corp. 1891 Specimen Bond Pennsylvania, 1891. $100 Specimen 4% First Mortgage Sinking Fund Gold Bond, Black text with brown border and underprint, Men at work in mine depicted at top center. Red specimen overprints, 0000 serial number, POCs. Fine condition, ABNC. The Clearfield Bituminous Coal Corporation traces its beginnings to the old McIntyre Coal Company of Lycoming County, Pennsylvania. In 1882, the corporation acquired coal lands in Clearfield County, and in 1903, in Indiana County as well. Within the next few years, the corporation’s Indiana County field developed quickly. The CBC, however, was an unusual kind of coal company as it sold no coal. In 1898, the CBC charter was amended to prohibit the corporation from selling coal, and after that year, all commercial activity was discontinued. Accordingly, the corporation’s mines became producers of “captive tonnage,” and all coal mined was used solely as locomotive fuel for the New York Central Railroad. Rare specimen bond, only 2 examples found in the ABN Archives. �� Est. $90-150
