The Commonwealth Bank's high-denomination notes of the 1930s were never intended for everyday commerce — the £100 note circulated almost exclusively between banks, businesses, and government accounts. At the time, £100 represented roughly three months' wages for an average Australian worker, which made retail use essentially theoretical.
T. S. Harrison's operation in Melbourne had been producing Australian notes since 1913, ending the country's earlier dependence on overseas printers. The P#24B is distinguished from the earlier 24A by the signature combination — a detail that matters considerably to series collectors, since signature pairs on Commonwealth Bank notes of this period directly reflect specific periods of institutional leadership and are the primary basis for variety classification.
