Den Dansk-Vestindiske Nationalbank was a short-lived institution serving the Danish West Indies — St. Croix, St. Thomas, and St. Jan — during the final decades of Danish colonial rule. By 1905 the islands' economy was stagnant, sugar production long past its peak, and there was persistent pressure on Denmark to sell the territory to the United States, negotiations that would ultimately succeed in 1917. Notes from this bank circulated in a genuinely small, commercially marginal colony.
Bradbury Wilkinson produced the plate work in London. The "St. Thomas" designation identifies the payable location, not the place of printing — a distinction worth keeping clear on this series.
