1935 V0lume 4: Bank Lists
Scope and Plan
Intent:
The plan for this work is to arrange and present information in a format
that features tables, lists, and charts to facilitate rapid and convenient
retrieval of data. Narratives will be kept to a minimum.
Target audience:
Paper money collectors, local historians, and genealogists are most likely
to see value in this title. There may be aspects of the work that will also
be regarded as useful by some economic historians.
Scope:
This reference work will be divided into three sections:
1) General Introduction. This includes:
• Bibliography of government reports, bank trade publications, and
directories consulted in preparation of the content
• Tabular listings of the largest banks from year to year in terms of
total resources, and those with the largest circulation
• Statistics providing aggregate total resources and mean average
total resources of national banks from year to year
• Annual statistics documenting the number of banks in operation, and
tallies of numbers that went into voluntary liquidation,
consolidation, or which were dissolved during the course of
receivership.
This section appeared in its entirety in Volumes 1 through 3.
2) List of National Banks chartered from 1863 up till the end of 1935
(charter numbers 1 though 14348). All known title variations and
changes in location--prior to 1936--will be included. This section is
presented in Volume 4.

or more years.
