Neither u t i 1 i z e s the
traditional three hanging balls

identification. "Too rn u c h
danger that they would fall
and hit somebody in the
head," explained Leo
Finklestein, who operates
what is believed to be North
Carolina's oldest pawn shop,
founded by his father in 1903.
"The day of the old-time
hockshop is over," said
Finklestein, looking back ta
the time when his storage
area contained false teeth,
surgical appliances, as many
as 800 suits of clothing and

500 overcoats (hocked with
the arrival of warm weather),
and oddities such as an
electrical checker board.
Once, around 1912, a circus
carne to town and went broke
Finklestein said. His father
took trunks full of abbreviated
costumes, a stuffed tiger and
lion. "They finally got the
money up and sent for them,"
he said. "In those days we'd
take any kind of portable
security."
In the era before credit
cards and the proliferation
of banks and other lencting
agencies, pawnshops w e r e
utilized by persons from <!11
walks of life in need of a
loan from 10 cents to $500.
"People with any credit
rating at all can get a loan
today," Finklestein said .. " But
even with that, our 'business
has increased every year.
Much of this increase is
in the sale of new merchandise. Fink 1 est e in's

jewelry, musical instruments
and luggage.

Ashevilleans come by f o r

so-called affluent society.
Row after row of pledges
are stored: portable television

machines, radios, cameras,
jewelry, binoculars, p o w e r
tools, fishing outfits, golf
clubs, some luggage, pistols,
shotguns and rifles, sets of
silverware
and

go to the bank for $5 or $10.
Our loans average about $10,"
Finklestein said.
Pawnbrokers work closely
with the police and are little
used in the disposal of stolen
articles, Finklestein s a i d .
Less
than one-tenth of
one per cent of his' company's
transactions have involved
stolen goods. Householders are
advised to keep records of
serial numbers of appliances,
etc., that might be stolen to
assist in their recovery.
Pawnbrokers date back to
China 2,000 to 3,000 years ago.
Their legal foundations were
set up by the ancient Romans
and Greeks. In medieval
ages, laws prohibited the
charging of interest on money
loaned, but pawnbroking was
· exempt and carried on by the
Jews and Lornbards. The
three-ball symbol denoted a
Lombard merchant.
Pawnbroking became a
recognized business in the
United States in the 18th Century, and in World War I
was a main source of consumer credit.
Brokers are required to
hold pledges at least three
months before offering them
for sale to others. Where a!'rangernents are made, many
pledges are held for longer
periods. About 80 per cent
are redeemed.

In the latter part of the
19th Century, Harry L.
Finklestein was one of five
brothers . who left Russia-he
to South Africa; the other
four to the United States.
