The Dominion Bank was a Toronto-chartered institution that had operated independently since 1871, but by the time this note was printed it was already in the final stretch of its corporate life — the bank merged with the Canadian Bank of Commerce in 1931, the same year of this issue. Notes dated that year exist in a narrow window that coincides almost exactly with the merger's completion, which raises the reasonable question of how many reached actual circulation before being pulled.
Canadian Bank Note Company produced the bulk of chartered bank currency in this period, working from Ottawa with consistent plate quality. The note falls within the final era of Canadian chartered bank currency before the Bank of Canada Act of 1934 stripped private banks of their note-issuing rights entirely.
