Summary
| Description |
English: First page of VOC capital subscription ledger (Amsterdam branch; August 1602). The introduction on this page contains the provision that shares in the VOC could be traded. At the foot of the page, the entries of the directors Gerrit Bicker, Reinier Pauw, Jan Jansz Kaerel, Jacques de Velaer, Jan Poppen, and Hendrick Buyck can be seen. They each invested 12,000 guilders—an amount of money for which you could buy six unpretentious canalside houses in early seventeenth-century Amsterdam. |
