The Canadian Bank of Commerce was one of several chartered banks still issuing their own notes in 1939, operating under the provisions of the Bank Act that had permitted private bank currency since Confederation. That arrangement was already dying — the Bank of Canada had opened in 1935, and the 1944 revision to the Bank Act would strip chartered banks of their right of issue entirely, phasing out all private notes by 1950. This note belongs to the last generation of chartered bank currency Canada would ever see.
The Canadian Bank Note Company in Ottawa held the contract for this series, as it did for much of the chartered bank work in the late dominion period.
