Kings Bay AS was established in 1916 under the name Kings Bay Kull Compani A/S (KBKC) by a group of businessmen from lesund seeking to exploit the coalfields near Ny-lesund in Svalbard. The Norwegian government assumed control of the company in 1933. Mining operations ceased in 1963.

    The note has been signed by Arne Brgger * and Einar Sltto. Brgger never served as a company secretary in Svalbard but as a manager and commercial director. The signature is unclear, almost illegible - with an indecipherable squiggle. Einar Sltto was chairman of Kings Bay 1947-55.
