The Merchants Bank of Canada had been operating since 1864, but by the time this note was issued it was already in a slow institutional decline — the bank was absorbed by the Bank of Montreal in 1922 in one of the more significant Canadian banking consolidations of the early twentieth century, leaving this series with a short window of active circulation.
The American Bank Note Company operated a Canadian facility in Ottawa, which handled a substantial portion of Dominion and chartered bank printing during the war years. Supply constraints on imported materials pushed more work to the Ottawa plant during this period.
