Original Greek bank employment letter, issued in 1918 by the Τράπεζα Κρήτης.
The document is dated 1 August 1918 and was issued in Chania, Crete. It is addressed to Miss Argyri Barnia (Δεσποινίς Αργυρή Μπαρνιά) and concerns her appointment as a typist, with a stated monthly salary of 125 drachmas.
The letter bears the original handwritten signature of the Director of the Bank of Crete, confirming its authenticity as an official administrative document. The signer is identified by title only (“Director”), as is typical for the period.
Issued during the final year of World War I, this document represents an early and notable example of female employment in the Greek banking sector, only a few years after Crete’s incorporation into the modern Greek state.
