Two identical oval portrait medallions, each with a classical female head in profile facing left and surrounded by intricate lathe-work rosettes, flank the central panel.

The Appenzell-Ausserrhodische Kantonalbank was one of Switzerland's smaller cantonal issuers, and its notes from this period were produced under the decentralized regime that persisted until the Swiss National Bank absorbed cantonal note-issuing rights in 1910. Bradbury Wilkinson's involvement here is characteristic — the London firm handled a substantial portion of Swiss cantonal printing in the late nineteenth century, competing with continental houses for contracts that demanded high security engraving at competitive cost.
Albert Walch was a Swiss artist; Josef von Storck an Austrian designer and director of the Vienna School of Arts and Crafts. An unusual pairing for a small Appenzell institution, and one that suggests the design commission passed through Bradbury Wilkinson's own network rather than originating locally.
