| Comments |
Barclays Bank (Canada) was a short-lived subsidiary of Barclays Bank PLC, established to serve British commercial interests in Canada. It never built a meaningful retail network and surrendered its Canadian banking charter in 1956 — which makes any chartered private issue from this institution uncommon by definition. The 1935 date places this note in the final years of Canadian private chartered bank note issuance; the Bank of Canada was established that same year and began its monopoly on note circulation shortly after.
The Canadian Bank Note Company printed the series in Ottawa, as they did for most chartered banks still issuing at that point. Private chartered bank notes remained legal tender in Canada until 1950, though most had effectively disappeared from circulation well before then.
