| Opmerkingen |
The Chartered Bank of India, Australia and China maintained a long commercial presence in Bangkok, and its Thai-currency notes occupied an unusual legal position — private banknotes issued by a British imperial bank circulating in a sovereign kingdom that had not yet established its own central bank. The Siamese government tolerated, and in practice depended on, foreign bank issue well into the early twentieth century.
W.A. Sprague & Co. produced relatively little surviving material compared to contemporaries like Waterlow or Bradbury Wilkinson, which makes their Bangkok-series output of the 1890s among the more infrequently encountered examples of their commercial engraving work.
