Springvale, Maine. $10 1929 Ty. 1. Fr. 1801-1. Springvale NB. Charter #7835. PMG Very Fine 20.
When one generally thinks of a small size Maine National, one cannot help but think of the multitude of notes issued by institutions in Auburn, Lewiston, Augusta, Portland, Bangor, and Skowhegan, However, even among the relatively common banks that dotted Maine's commercial landscape during the National-Banking-era, the Springvale National Bank of Springvale stands out as an outlier. Originally chartered in 1905, the total circulation issued by this bank never eclipsed the minimum of $6,250.00 at any given time before it fell into Receivership in 1933. Today only a total of 8 notes are currently recorded from this small York County hamlet, of which this example remains unrecorded. A great note for the Maine specialist seeking to cross off this elusive charter for their own holdings.
