| Comments |
António Teixeira de Sousa, one of the two governors whose signature appears on this note, would become Prime Minister of Portugal just months after its issue — his tenure ending only with the republican revolution of October 1910. The Banco Nacional Ultramarino, though nominally a colonial bank, had held the note-issuing concession for metropolitan Portugal during earlier decades and still carried considerable political weight in Lisbon's financial circles.
Two signature combinations are recorded for P#33, suggesting a longer print run that bridged at least one change in senior management. Bradbury Wilkinson's involvement is the rule rather than the exception for Portuguese colonial issues of this period.
