World Expo 88, held in Brisbane from April to October 1988, issued these souvenir notes as commemorative novelties rather than any form of redeemable currency. The American Bank Note Company's involvement — by then a prestige printer on reputation more than volume — gave the pieces a veneer of authenticity that pure in-house print runs couldn't match.
ABNC was in serious financial decline by the late 1980s and would file for bankruptcy in 1999. This note is among the later commissions from a house whose finest work was already decades behind it.
