| Opmerkingen |
The Caisse Centrale de la France Libre was established by de Gaulle's Free French administration in 1941 specifically to provide a monetary instrument for liberated or contested French territories — this 1000 Francs note being one of its first significant issues. The commission went to Bradbury Wilkinson, the London security printer with deep experience in colonial and emergency currency work, and the design to Edmund Dulac, the French-born illustrator who had been resident in Britain since 1905 and was already contributing to British wartime propaganda efforts.
Pick #14 is notably scarce in genuinely circulated condition, as distribution was limited and geographically uneven across Free French-controlled territories.
