| Comments |
Bradbury Wilkinson printed several Icelandic series during this period, and the P#35 100 Krónur is among the cleaner commissions — Jón Thorleifsson's design work here is unusually coherent for a small-nation issue of the era, avoiding the cluttered allegory common in postwar European notes.
The issue span covers a period of significant economic adjustment in Iceland, including the country's managed exchange rate shifts tied to its postwar dollar dependency. Notes from the early end of the 1948–1956 run carry different signing combinations than later dates, and serial prefix blocks help narrow individual examples within the series.
