| Comments |
Móra d'Ebre was an anarcho-syndicalist collective in the Ebro valley of Tarragona, one of hundreds of CNT-FAI controlled communities that collectivized land, labor, and currency after the July 1936 uprising. These locally printed vouchers functioned as internal scrip — valid within the collective's economy, useless outside it — a practical consequence of the CNT's deliberate rejection of centralized banking rather than a wartime improvisation.
Gráficas Launes was a small regional printer, and the thick paper stock reflects the improvised supply chains of wartime Catalonia. The Francoist advance across the Ebro in 1938 ended the collective and, with it, any remaining circulation of these notes.
