Vittoria is a small agricultural town in the Ragusa province of southeastern Sicily — an unlikely home for a prisoner of war camp, but one of dozens of Italian internment facilities that issued their own scrip during the First World War to keep foreign currency out of civilian hands. The camp authorities at Vittoria contracted Lit. G. Marchese e Figli in Turin for the printing, meaning these notes traveled the length of the Italian peninsula before reaching the men they were issued to.
POW camp scrip from Italian facilities is genuinely uncommon in any grade. Most was redeemed or destroyed at repatriation, and what survived did so largely by accident.
