Custodial history
Fonds was donated to the Archives of Ontario in 1990 by Gary E. French of Elmvale, Ontario.
Scope and content
Fonds predominantly consists of circulars, letters and brochures sent by A.E. Ames & Co. to its clients, correspondents and salesmen, promoting specific issues of bonds. The bonds were offered by the company for federal, provincial and municipal governments, public utilities, school boards and a number of private corporations. The fonds also includes a few letters and telegrams sent to individual investors concerning particular bond issues. In addition to these circulars, the fonds includes issues of the company's employees newsletter, the Ames Salesman, as well as issues of Investor's Reference and Canadian Investors Manual.
