Opmerkingen

Bogliaco, on the western shore of Lake Garda, housed one of several Italian prisoner-of-war camps that issued their own internal scrip during the Second World War. These fractional notes — tenths of a lira — functioned as canteen currency, legally isolating prisoners from the civilian economy and preventing the accumulation of Italian state money that could theoretically fund escape attempts.

Camp-issued scrip of this type was produced locally, not by a commercial printer, which accounts for the crude manufacture common across surviving examples. Most were destroyed or discarded at liberation.
