Camarles is a small municipality in the Baix Ebre comarca of Tarragona, and this note is one of thousands of local emergency emissions that flooded Republican-held Spain after the summer of 1936, when the hoarding of metallic coin created an acute shortage of small change. Municipal councils, cooperatives, and even individual businesses were effectively forced into issuing their own fractional currency — a phenomenon documented across Catalonia and the Levant in particular.
Printed by Imprenta Querol of Tortosa, a local press that produced emergency notes for several nearby municipalities during the same period. The official stamp is the primary — arguably the only — security measure, consistent with the rushed, improvised nature of the entire wartime local-currency episode. Turró catalogues over a thousand such emissions from the region.
