The Bank of Toronto issued this 1935 series note during the final years of its independent existence — the bank merged with the Dominion Bank in 1955 to form Toronto-Dominion Bank, one of the last such private bank consolidations in Canadian history. By 1935, Canadian chartered bank notes were already living on borrowed time; the Bank of Canada had been established that same year and would progressively assume the monopoly on note issuance, with chartered banks ultimately losing that right entirely by 1950.
The Canadian Bank Note Company in Ottawa handled production for much of the chartered banking sector by this period, their work distinguishing itself through fine intaglio line engraving.
