Description: EXTREMEMLY GOOD CONDITION, UNUSED, UNSTRUCK MATCHBOOK from the Brookline Savings and Trust Company (1926 - 1969), Pittsburgh, PA. The company was chartered in 1926 and remained in operation until 1969, when it was absorbed into larger regional banking institutions. The Brookline bank was instrumental in the growth and development of the neighborhood. Through its innovative financial services and customer outreach programs, it helped many local homeowners and merchants as they coped with the hardships of the Great Depression. In the 1950s, when most regional banks were offering 1% interest on savings, Brookline Savings and Trust Company offered 2.5%, the highest rate allowable. At some point, presumably 1958, it offered (for a time at least) up to 4% interest on savings accounts, reflected on the back of the matchbook cover. ** NOTE: USPS prohibits shipment of matches by air. Must go via Ground Transport.
