Projet d'un billet de 1 Pound pour l'Île des Pins (petite île de Nouvelle Calédonie qui "entre 1840 et 1853 ... vit nombre d'aventuriers débarquer et s'installer. Des comptoirs s'ouvrirent pour commercialiser le santal" - Les billets de la Banque de l'Indochine, M.Kolsky M.Muszynski, p.187).
Gravure sur papier Canson épais. Dimensions globales 27 x 15 cm, dimensions du billet 20 x 10 cm.
Gravure réalisée par Henry Cooper JERVIS (1816-) à Sydney. Quatre autres épreuves sont également conservées à la State Library de Sydney.
D'après l'ouvrage de Pam Carver "Captain Robert Towns (1794-1873)", cette plaque a été gravée en 1848 pour Robert Towns qui avait un établissement commercial à l'Île des Pins. Ce dernier pensait que les anglais allaient prendre possession de l'île et qu'ainsi un billet ressemblant à une émission anglaise serait reconnu comme monnaie officielle de l'île. Ce billet ne fut jamais mis en circulation et seul cette rare épreuve est un ancien témoignage de cette histoire !.
Design for a 1 Pound note for the Isle of Pines (a small island in New Caledonia which \\\"between 1840 and 1853 ... saw many adventurers land and settle. Trading posts opened to sell sandalwood\\\" - Banknotes of the Bank of Indochina, M.Kolsky M.Muszynski, p.187). Engraving on thick Canson paper. Overall dimensions 27 x 15 cm, note dimensions 20 x 10 cm. Engraving made by Henry Cooper JERVIS (1816-) in Sydney. Four other proofs are also kept at the State Library of Sydney. According to Pam Carver's book \\\"Captain Robert Towns (1794-1873)\\\", this plate was engraved in 1848 for Robert Towns who had a trading establishment on the Isle of Pines. The latter believed that the English would take possession of the island and that a note resembling an English issue would thus be recognized as the island's official banknote. This note was never put into circulation and only this rare proof is an ancient testimony to this story!
