| Opmerkingen |
The Banque de Syrie et du Liban was a French-chartered institution operating under mandate authority, and by 1947 its days were already numbered — Syria had declared independence in 1946, Lebanon in 1943, and both countries were actively working to establish their own central banks. These notes were issued into a currency arrangement that all parties knew was temporary.
Marguerite "Rita" Dreyfus was one of the Banque de France's most accomplished engravers of the mid-twentieth century, responsible for some of the finest intaglio portraiture on French colonial issues of the period.
