| Anmerkungen |
The Eastern Bank of Canada had a short and troubled run. Chartered in 1910, it collapsed in 1928 — meaning this 1929-dated note was issued during the formal wind-down and receivership period, not by a functioning bank. Notes printed after the suspension of operations were used to settle outstanding claims and facilitate the orderly closure, a process overseen by the Canadian government under the terms of the Bank Act.
The American Bank Note Company held contracts with numerous Canadian chartered banks through this period. That the plates were already prepared before the bank's failure explains how a 1929 date appears on notes from an institution that had already ceased normal business.
