I’m looking for the 1st Largest Bank Failure in US History. I’m sick of seeing that IndyMac is the 2nd–that’s all you ever hear. What was the 1st largest bank failure in US history–and WHEN?

Largest bank failure in U.S. History, after 1934, Continental Illinois National Bank & Trust (Chicago) 1984, 40.0 Billion
Worst year for bank closings, 1989, 534 banks closed their doors. IndyMac will probably come in third on the list.
