Molsons Bank was one of Canada's oldest chartered banks, tracing its origins to 1855 and the Molson brewing and industrial family. By 1916, Canadian chartered bank note issue was already in its final decades — the Bank of Canada Act of 1934 would eventually monopolize currency issuance, and Molsons itself was absorbed into the Bank of Montreal in 1925, ending its right of issue entirely.
Waterlow & Sons printed the series in London during wartime, an arrangement that required transatlantic shipment of finished notes at a moment when U-boat activity made such logistics genuinely risky.
