About the time this bond was issued, The Great Depression hit Asheville quite hard. On November 20, 1930, eight local banks failed. Only Wachovia remained open with infusions of cash from Winston-Salem. Because of the explosive growth of the previous decades, the per capita debt owed by the city (through municipal bonds) was the highest in the nation. By 1929, both the city & Buncombe County had incurred over $56 million in bonded debt to pay for a wide range of municipal & infrastructure improvements, including City Hall, the water system, Beaucatcher Tunnel, & Asheville High School. Rather than default, the city paid those debts over a period of fifty years. Read more at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asheville,_North_Carolina Item ordered may not be exact piece shown.
