| Obverse description | The obverse carries the issuing authority's title «CHAMBRE DE COMMERCE DE TARBES» at the head of the note, above the central denomination statement «1 FRANC», with the deliberation date of 7 February 1915 and a repayment deadline of 7 February 1920 inscribed in full. A six-digit serial number is printed in black, with no series letter or watermark present. Two manuscript signatures appear in the lower margin, attributed to the Treasurer and the President respectively. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a finely engraved landscape vignette in blue-green, centred on a dramatic mountain peak — likely the Pic du Midi de Bigorre — framed by pine forests with a winding road and a motor vehicle in the foreground. The validity dates «1915 × 1920» appear in a cartouche at upper left, with the denomination «1fr» set within a circular frame at upper right. A legend along the lower margin specifies that the note must be presented for reimbursement at the Tarbes branch of the Banque de France before 7 February 1920, and the printer's imprint «L. CASSAN AINÉ TOULOUSE» runs vertically along the left edge. |
