Blackstone, Harry (Henry Boughton). Resolution Dissolving Blackstone Inc. January, 1931. Harry Blackstone’s carbon copy of a notarized resolution dissolving the corporation Blackstone Inc., signed by Blackstone and his brother Pete Bouton (twice), as well as a witness and notary. With attached cover letter from the drafting attorney. The larger sheet legal sized and with damage to its corner. Peter Bouton was called “the mainspring of my watch” by his brother Harry Blackstone, but whatever financial partnership they had in the Blackstone magic show was apparently dissolved by this resolution.
