The Banque Canadienne Nationale was itself a young institution in 1929, formed only five years earlier from the merger of the Banque Nationale and the Banque d'Hochelaga. This note belongs to one of its earliest independent charter series, issued just months before the October crash effectively ended the private bank note era in Canada as a practical matter — Dominion notes had long competed with chartered bank issues, and the Depression years accelerated the political case for centralized currency.
The Canadian Bank Note Company printed the series in Ottawa, as was standard for BCN's chartered issues by this period. Surviving examples in high grade are harder to locate than the print run would suggest, partly due to mass redemptions during the early 1930s contraction.
