Bank of Montreal[]

1822–1920[]

During this period, the Bank of Montreal used a variety of different wordmarks, but didn't appear to use a single one consistently.

From 1817 to 1942, the Bank of Montreal issued their own paper money and they printed their company name on that paper money using a variety of different typefaces. The upper image shows one example from 1857.

1920–1945[]

SVG NEEDED

Evidence of this logo can be found in the Montreal Gazette newspaper as early as 1920, but it's unclear whether this logo existed further back than that.

1937–1943[]

SVG NEEDED

This logo was used in advertisements during the same time period as the logo above.

1945–1966[]

SVG NEEDED

This logo was used primarily for advertising purposes. In many print applications, the "My Bank" logo took precedence, and the wordmark was shown only in small type.

1959–1967[]

BETTER LOGO NEEDED

This logo was used in some capacities during the 1959 to 1967 period and features the Bank of Montreal coat of arms, with the 'Bank of Montreal' wordmark below it. Notice that the wordmark uses a similar typeface as the one used in the 1946-1966 logo.
