The Dominion Bank was a Toronto-chartered institution that had been operating since 1871, but by 1935 it was in its final years of independent existence — the bank merged with the Canadian Bank of Commerce in 1931, meaning this note was technically issued under a name that had already been absorbed. Canadian chartered banks retained the right to issue their own currency well into the twentieth century under the Bank Act, but the 1944 revisions ultimately ended that privilege for good, making the mid-1930s issues among the last of the chartered bank series.

The Canadian Bank Note Company printed for nearly every major chartered institution of the period, and distinguishing one house's production from another requires close attention to serial number positioning and plate letter placement.
