Comments

Municipal emergency notes from small Castilian towns during the Spanish Civil War were often produced with whatever local resources were available — typewriters, rubber stamps, and paper that was never intended to circulate as currency. Albaladejo, a village in the province of Ciudad Real, issued these notes under the authority of its local council when Republican-zone coinage effectively disappeared from circulation after 1936, hoarded or melted in the chaos of wartime.

The Gari Mon reference is incomplete, which is not unusual for this class of hyper-local emission — many Civil War municipal issues were catalogued inconsistently or remain only partially documented.
