| Opmerkingen |
Glarner Kantonalbank was one of the smaller cantonal institutions, serving a mountainous canton with a modest industrial base dominated by textiles. Its private note-issuing rights predated the federal consolidation that eventually stripped cantonal banks of circulation privileges — the Swiss National Bank's founding in 1907 effectively ended this series, which accounts for the tight nine-year window of issue.
Joseph Storck was a Viennese professor of decorative arts, an unusual choice that points to design procurement through Austrian rather than Swiss commercial channels. Albert Walch's involvement on the obverse suggests a division of labor between compositional concept and execution that was common in high-end engraved work of the period.
