Stadium de Paris bond, 16 ¾ x12 ½, printed on medium-weight semi-glossy stock, below are 40 bond payment coupons.
Paris, France had hoped to host the 1940 Summer Olympic Games but lost out in a bid to Tokyo, Japan. World War II prevented the 1940, nor the games scheduled in 1944 for London. The Summer Olympics resumed in 1948 in London. French officials planned to build a magnificent new stadium if awarded the 1940 games, the "Stadium de Paris", and were to issue bonds to finance this venture. For auction is an original bond certificate for the stadium. The bonds were never sold, and the stadium was never built.
