The Bank of New Zealand's earliest fully documented private banknote series, the 1917 issues were printed by Bradbury Wilkinson during wartime — a period when transatlantic shipping risks made the delivery of printed currency genuinely hazardous. New Zealand's note-issuing landscape at the time was dominated by private trading banks, with no central bank until 1934, meaning the BNZ operated with considerable autonomous authority over its own paper.
Pick 1 is the lowest-numbered entry in the New Zealand catalogue for a reason: pre-1917 BNZ issues remain poorly documented or are unconfirmed as distinct types. Whether earlier printings existed in comparable form is still debated among specialists.
