The British Linen Bank — technically the British Linen Company, chartered in 1746 to develop Scotland's linen trade — had long abandoned textiles by the time this note was printed, operating purely as a commercial bank out of Edinburgh. The high denomination places this squarely in the hands of businesses and correspondent banks rather than retail customers; £100 notes in interwar Scotland moved between ledgers, not pockets.
Waterlow & Sons printed the series across a seventeen-year window, an unusually long run that suggests the bank saw little reason to redesign. The British Linen Bank was absorbed by Barclays in 1919, though it continued issuing notes under its own name until 1954.
