MICHIGAN 1929 Detroit City Service Company Stock Certificate Ice & Fuel

Description

The certificate was dated April 2, 1929. The company was incorporated in Michigan in 1927.
In 1927, the Detroit City Service Company was incorporated for the purpose of continuing the ice and fuel business formerly carried on by the General Necessities Corporation, whose plants, equipment, fixtures, good will, etc., it acquired. The General Necessities Corporation had manufactured and sold over 60 per cent of the artificial ice purchased by the people of the city of Detroit and vicinity. It had owned a large number of plants at various points in or near
the city of Detroit, systematically located so that, with the use of horses and wagons or motor trucks, all consumers could be conveniently served from a neighboring plant. During the winter time a large portion of the transportation equipment had been employed in the fuel business. The plants were so coordinated that they constituted one large business, conducted principally from a single accounting and management office. .
