Additional Description: These 1929 small type national currency notes carry the distinctive brown seal that marks the nationwide shift to a unified format at the decade’s end. Issued through individual local banks, they blend federal consistency with the character of the institutions whose names and charter details remain central to the design. The new compact layout preserved the engraved traditions of earlier large size notes while adapting them to a cleaner, more practical style that signaled the beginning of the modern era.
