100 N. Cuyler St. The First National Bank of Pampa was chartered number 9142 on October 8, 1907, and issued currency until April 15, 1935, almost to the end of the National Bank period.
It's history intertwines with other local banks.
"A moderately worn specimen with solid paper for the grade and a pleasing overall appearance. There are no significant defects, although a tiny edge split is noticed near the bottom left corner and a tiny blue ink mark is seen near the center of the reverse. Only this single example [These notes were written in 2001, and since then, two others are acknowledged, but HA should have known about the note in the Philpott-Moody] is known to have survived from this bank in the Texas panhandle, and since this was the only issuing bank in town, the opportunity to own a note from Pampa may not come around again in the lifetime of many collectors. This bank has a tiny issue of just 64 sheets of $20 small size notes, and it is a wonder that any have survived. Organized in 1907, this bank was liquidated in April, 1935.
