The Commercial Bank of Scotland was one of the major Edinburgh-based joint-stock banks established in the early nineteenth century, and by the Edwardian period its notes were well embedded in everyday Scottish commerce. Bradbury Wilkinson, the London security printer responsible for this series, held contracts with numerous Scottish banks simultaneously — their Scots banknote work during this period is technically accomplished but rarely distinguishable from one institution to the next at the production level.
Scottish banks retained their right to issue their own notes under the Bank Notes (Scotland) Act of 1845, which fixed each bank's authorized circulation. The Commercial Bank merged with the National Bank of Scotland in 1959, ending its independent note-issuing history entirely.
