| Opmerkingen |
The Commercial Bank of Manitoba had a short and troubled life. Chartered in 1884, it failed in 1893 after a run of bad loans in a collapsing prairie real estate market, leaving depositors with significant losses. Notes from this institution are genuinely scarce precisely because the bank never achieved wide distribution before its collapse — most of its paper circulated in a tight regional corridor.
The American Bank Note Company printed the entire series from its New York facilities, as was standard for Canadian chartered bank issues of the period seeking engraved security work of sufficient quality to deter counterfeiting.
