Ulster Bank's pre-war £10 notes occupy an awkward position in Irish provincial banking history — high-denomination commercial paper from a period when Ulster Bank was still operating as a fully independent joint-stock bank, decades before its absorption into the National Westminster group. The £10 was a working instrument for commercial transactions, not retail currency; most holders would have been businesses or agents, which partly explains why surviving examples in any condition are uncommon.
Charles Skipper & East printed extensively for Irish provincial banks through this period, though attributing the presswork specifically to a Northern Ireland facility rather than their London operations requires caution — catalog attributions for this house are sometimes imprecise on that point.
