| Opmerkingen |
Mendoza's provincial bond issues of the early 1910s occupy an awkward category — not quite banking notes, not quite government bonds, but emergency instruments issued by provinces that lacked access to sufficient national currency during a period when the Caja de Conversión kept a tight grip on paper money supply. The 500 Pesos denomination placed this firmly in commercial rather than retail circulation; ordinary wages in the Argentine interior were nowhere near that figure.
Gez Kraft was a well-regarded Buenos Aires lithographic house of the period, handling commercial and government printing work across several Argentine provinces. Their output is generally competent but rarely distinguished technically.
