Danforth, Wright & Co. occupied a brief but productive window in American siderographic printing — the firm name appears only in the mid-1850s, representing one of several reorganizations among the interconnected partnerships that eventually consolidated into the American Bank Note Company in 1858. Notes bearing this imprint are effectively dated by the name alone.
The Mechanics Bank of Brooklyn was a state-chartered institution operating under New York's free banking laws. By 1855 Brooklyn was still an independent city, three decades from consolidation into New York City, and its banks issued currency in their own name accordingly.
