Very nifty set of three 1954 modified notes autographed by (then) Bank of Canada Deputy-Governor Gerald Bouey for sale.

The notes — $1 BC37c, I/F 9019710; $2 BC38c, E/G 0907900, and $5 BC39c, U/X 9343117 — are all pristine uncirculated, and are signed by Bouey in black marker in the upper left corner of each.

Each autograph is slightly different, showing that they are not machine facsimiles.

Paper of each note is brilliant white, with generous margins, sharp edges and corners.

Story behind them is that the original collector's family was personal friends with Bouey.

Price for the three notes is $525.

Comes with the option of buying another 1954 note — a $1, BC37bi, B/P 1102020, in VF —  with the autograph of (then) Bank of Canada Governor Louis Rasminsky, for $50.
