Description: HERE WE HAVE AN ORIGINAL SHELBY AMERICAN INC CHECK THAT CAME DIRECTLY FROM SHELBYS OWN RECORDS AND COLLECTION . THIS IS DATED AUGUST 14 1962 TO FRED M IGE WHOM WAS CARROLL SHELBYS EARLIEST AND BEST METAL WORKERS - HE WENT ON TO HAVE A LONG CAREER IN METAL FABRICATION INCLUDING WORKING FOR PARNELLI JONES, HARRAHS AND EVEN HIS OWN CUSTOM SHOP IN SANTA MONICA CALIFORNIA THIS WAS MARKED "FOR CARROLL SHELBY ENTERPRIES INVOICE #1372". THIS IS CHECK NUMBER X-49 THIS IS LITERALLY THE 49TH CHECK WROTE FROM THE CARROLL SHELBY - SHELBY AMERICAN CHECKING ACCOUNT! IT IS SIGNED BY WARREN OLSON WHOM WAS ONE OF THE HOLDOVER EMPLOYEES WHEN SHELBY TOOK OVER LANCE REVENTLOWS SCARAB FACILTY IN VENICE CALIFORNIA. WARREN WAS THE ORIGINAL OVERSEER OF SHELBYS OPERATION. THIS IS A VERY UNIQUE PIECE FOR ANY FORD, MUSTANG OR SHELBY LOVERS COLLECTION. WE WERE LUCKY ENOUGH TO OBTAIN WHAT WAS LEFT OF SOME CASHED AND RETURNED CARROLL SHELBY - SHELBY AMERICAN CHECKS FROM THE EARLY 1960's ERA. THIS IS AN ORIGINAL PIECE AND IS ONE OF A KIND. THIS IS FROM THE DAYS WHEN CHECKS WERE ACTUALLY RETURNED TO THE WRITER AND SHELBY HAD KEPT SOME ASIDE FOR MANY YEARS. THERE IS QUITE A BIT OF SHELBY MEMORIBILIA, COLLECTIBLES AND UNIQUE PARTS TO COLLECT BUT A GENUINE CHECK HE USED WITH THE EARLY BUSINESS IS A MUST HAVE! THIS IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AS SHOWN AND WOULD BE A WONDERFUL PIECE TO DISPLAY IN ANY GARAGE, MAN CAVE, GAME ROOM, SHOW ROOM OR WITH YOUR CAR AT THE SHOWS. THE SAAC SHELBY CLUB CAN CONFIRM THE AUTHENTICITY OF THESE CHECKS. FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS. GJSCKLOT3 CHECKSLOT3 Powered by SixBit's eCommerce Solution
