Standard Bank was incorporated in London in 1862 and maintained its head office there throughout this period, which is why Waterlow & Sons handled the printing — the relationship was administrative as much as practical. Waterlow produced a substantial share of British colonial banking paper during this era and held contracts with several South African institutions simultaneously.
The date range spans the tail end of the Anglo-Boer War through to the post-Union consolidation of South African banking. Notes from the earliest years of this issue would have circulated alongside Transvaal and Orange River Colony government paper, all competing for public confidence in a region still absorbing the financial disruption of the war and its scorched-earth aftermath.
S-prefix Pick references indicate private commercial bank issues rather than central or government authority — Standard Bank retained note-issuing rights in South Africa until well into the twentieth century.
