Description

From one of the most controversial firms on Wall Street, this vintage whiskey glass set is a rare find. Featuring a decanter and 6 matching glasses wrapped in stock ticker tape from a stock ticker tape machine. The main decanter/pitcher features the Lehman Brothers name and the front of their headquarters at One William Street.

Lehman Brothers was founded in 1847 and was once the 4th largest and one of the most respected investment banks in the U.S. Lehman has become synonymous with the Financial Crisis of 2008 when they filed for bankruptcy as a result of their subprime lending and the subsequent liquidity crisis. The Lehman bankruptcy was the largest in U.S. history would be a major contributor to the panic in global markets that followed. Their shares tanked 90% on September 15, 2008 and they were delisted from from the NYSE just two days later.
