Opmerkingen

The Chartered Bank of India, Australia & China held a colonial banking charter that gave it the right to issue notes across a vast, jurisdictionally awkward network of branches — Hong Kong, Singapore, Shanghai, and beyond. The specific branch of payment matters enormously with this series, as identical-looking Waterlow-printed notes were overprinted or signed for different offices, and values can diverge sharply depending on which branch name appears.

Waterlow & Sons produced this series across more than two decades, which is a long print run by any measure. Wartime disruption to distribution almost certainly explains part of that span — notes prepared before or during the Japanese occupation of regional branches had complicated paths to actual issuance.
