The Bank of China's 1940 series was printed in New York by the American Bank Note Company under difficult circumstances — by this point, Japanese forces had overrun much of coastal China, and the Nationalist government's financial infrastructure had retreated inland to Chungking. Notes destined for Free China had to be shipped across the Pacific under wartime conditions, and delivery was not always guaranteed.
The ABNCo contract continued even after the attack on Pearl Harbor complicated trans-Pacific logistics considerably. Some shipments were rerouted or delayed, making certain printings within the series harder to account for by date of actual release into circulation.
