Mini Story or Hook

A striking piece of Australian banking history, this large vintage Perspex sign features the C.B.A GROUP branding of the Commercial Bank of Australia, together with a distinctive map of Australia and New Zealand.

The Commercial Bank of Australia was a major name in Australian banking history before ultimately becoming part of the modern Westpac group. Original commercial signage such as this provides a tangible reminder of an Australian banking name that has now disappeared from the streetscape.

With its bold red, black and yellow graphics, oversized lettering and unmistakably Australian design, this is a fantastic statement piece for a collector of banking memorabilia, Australiana, vintage advertising, corporate history or commercial signage.

It would also make an impressive display piece in a home bar, office, retail space, café, garage or man cave.
