Description: INTERNATIONAL BUYERS:? The shipping rates shown are for '1st Class International Package' with tracking.? Ebay is also promoting their EIS International Shipping program on sellers pages. I do not use this program because it is more expensive, slower, not very transparent, and frustrating to the buyer, if something goes wrong. Do not select it, if ebay does show it as an option. Thank you. Portrait of: ISAAC S. GEORGE, President of Traders' National Bank, Baltimore , born in Baltimore, July 9, 1818. There, by close attention , hard labor, rigid economy, and perseverance, he succeeded in building up a profitable trade . In 1867 he was compelled , through chronic affliction, to withdraw from active business. In 1864 his son, I. Brown George, being then of age , Mr. George established the house of Isaac S. George & Son at No. 252 Baltimore Street, soon after which he erected the iron-front building northeast corner of Baltimore and Liberty streets , into which the firm moved and successfully conducted the business until 1875 , when the senior partner retired , leaving the business in charge of his son, who still conducts the commission boot, shoe , and rubber trade at the same place, occupying the entire building. Mr. George has pursued an upright course through life, and has therefore won the confidence of the public . His likes and dislikes are very strong, and he maintains his opinions with tenacity. His course in general has been marked by conservatism . In early manhood he took much interest -in attending lyceums , meanwhile never claiming any literary taste or distinction . He was one of the founders of the " Murray Institute," first presided over by Rev. Dr. James Shrigley, an institution which reflected marked social influence, and as a Debating Society became exceedingly popular.
