Banco Potosí was one of several Bolivian provincial banks authorized to issue currency under the 1890 Ley de Bancos, which briefly allowed private regional institutions to circulate their own notes before the Bolivian state moved to centralize monetary control in the early twentieth century. Potosí's historic identity as a silver-mining center gave the bank a degree of credibility that purely commercial institutions elsewhere in the country lacked — the city had been synonymous with precious metal extraction since the colonial period.
Bradbury Wilkinson printed extensively for Latin American issuers during this period, and their work for Bolivian provincial banks is among the less-documented corners of that output.
