    I sometimes receive questions of persons who inherited  or bought shares in
      this company and want to know if they still have any economic value.
      I don't think they have and that mr. Mc. Alpin, who signed the certificates as president, has deceived his investors. 
      
    Anyone who knows more about this company is requested to inform me, in order that that I
    can answer those who wrote to me. See
our separate page for more information on this company and related ones.

    English: This share has been drawn in Esher style by the
      Frisian biologist Huite Zijlstra, manager at the teakwood plantation
      of Flor y Fauna in Costa Rica. The company invests in this plantation.
      In 1996 he and his partner were kidnapped for ransom, a fact which got
      worldwide media attention. After a long time of suspense they were
      exchanged
      unharmed. Most of the money was recovered and most kidnappers are in
      jail
      now. 
    Nederlands; Dit aandeel is in Esherstijl getekend door de Friese
          bioloog Huite Zijlstra, manager op de teakhout-plantage van Flor y
          Fauna in Costa Rica. De maatschappij investeert in deze plantage. In
          1996 kwamen hij en zijn levensgezellin in het nieuws vanwege hun
          ontvoering. Dat liep gelukkig - na een lange en spannende tijd - goed
          af.
