In 1933, an emergency issue of Federal Reserve Bank Notes (backdated Series 1929
due to the use of old printing plates) was produced, in order to quickly increase the
volume of currency available to the banking system during the Depression. These notes
were signed not only by the Register and Treasurer, but also by two officials of the
issuing Federal Reserve Bank. The table below lists these twenty-four FRB signers and
presents a specimen of each signature.
