Ripoll del Vallès is a small municipality in the Vallès Oriental comarca, and like hundreds of Catalan towns during the Civil War, it resorted to issuing its own emergency fractional currency after the Republican government's acute shortage of small-denomination coinage made everyday transactions nearly impossible. The Generalitat de Catalunya had authorised local bodies to fill the gap, and by 1937 the volume of these municipal emissions across Catalonia numbered in the thousands of distinct issues.
El Secretariat Català was a Barcelona print shop responsible for a significant number of these local wartime notes, which gives Turró#2135 a certain typographic consistency with dozens of other municipal pieces from the same period — useful when authenticating, since forgeries of the more obscure emissions do occasionally surface.
