Celebrate a distinctive chapter of American business history with a Jackson & Curtis ceramic ornament. Founded in Boston in 1879, the firm carried the character of Congress Street commerce into the expanding world of brokerage and securities. Its merger with Paine & Webber in 1942 preserved the name within a larger financial story that later reached New York and beyond. A thoughtful seasonal accent for collectors, finance professionals, Boston history fans, and heritage-themed displays.
Jackson & Curtis was founded in July 1879 on Congress Street in Boston, Massachusetts, by Charles Cabot Jackson and Laurence Curtis. The investment banking and stock brokerage firm began with two employees and leased premises on Congress Street in May 1881. It belonged to the Boston Stock Exchange and acquired a seat on the New York Stock Exchange in 1890. In June 1942, following the difficult years of the Great Depression, Jackson & Curtis merged with the Boston brokerage firm Paine & Webber. The combined business, Paine, Webber, Jackson & Curtis, had 22 branch offices and became a significant participant in the New England financial market. Its headquarters moved from Boston to New York in 1963. The holding company, PaineWebber Inc., was incorporated in 1970 and went public in 1974. Later acquisitions included Mitchell Hutchins in 1977 and Blyth, Eastman Dillon & Co. in 1979. In 1984, its divisions were consolidated under the Paine Webber brand. Paine Webber was acquired by UBS AG in 2000.
