Espolla is a small village in the Alt Empordà comarca of Catalonia, and like hundreds of other Catalan and Spanish municipalities, it issued its own emergency small-change notes during the Spanish Civil War. The Republican government's inability to maintain a supply of low-denomination coinage — copper and silver were hoarded or melted — forced local councils to print their own paper substitutes, typically in values of 25, 50, and 75 céntimos. Most were lithographed locally, on whatever stock was available, which accounts for the variable thickness collectors encounter across this series.
Turró's catalog remains the standard reference for these Catalan municipals, and Espolla's issues are among the more obscure entries — the village had a population of only a few hundred at the time of issue.
