Lascuarre is a village in the Ribagorza comarca of Huesca province — population measured in the hundreds even then. Like dozens of similarly small Aragonese municipalities, it issued its own emergency paper during the Spanish Civil War to address the near-total disappearance of metallic coin from circulation after 1936. These hyper-local emissions were produced with whatever printing resources were at hand, which typically meant rudimentary typography, thin runs, and no formal banking oversight whatsoever.
The Gari catalogue's "B" suffix indicates a recognized variant within the type — likely a difference in paper stock, ink color, or typographic detail. Survival rates for Lascuarre material are extremely low given the village's size and the chaotic conditions of the war's Aragonese front.
