    "description": "This volume contains a list of national banks in existence in 1941 or that had gone out of business prior to 1941. For each bank, the list gives the corporate name of the bank; the bank charter number; the city, county, the state where it was located; and, if it was closed, brief remarks about what happened to the bank. Some remarks from the 1950s are handwritten in the entries.",
