Banco Caracas was a private commercial bank, not a central bank, and its authority to issue notes stemmed from a Venezuelan banking law that permitted chartered institutions to circulate currency well into the twentieth century. By the mid-1920s, that system was already under pressure — the Banco Central de Venezuela would eventually consolidate and terminate private note issue, though that came later, in 1940.
The American Bank Note Company imprint on a Venezuelan private bank note of this period is unsurprising; ABNC held a near-monopoly on South American commercial printing work throughout the 1920s. What makes this denomination worth noting is that 100 bolívares represented serious purchasing power in 1926–28 Venezuela, a country then being rapidly transformed by oil revenues from the Maracaibo fields — meaning notes like this circulated among a very specific commercial class, not the general population.
