Tortellà is a small municipality in the Garrotxa comarca of Girona, and like hundreds of other Catalan towns it resorted to locally-printed paper scrip during 1937 when the Republic's small-denomination coinage had effectively vanished from circulation — hoarded, melted, or simply overwhelmed by wartime demand. These emergency emissions (els bitllets municipals) were authorized under the Generalitat de Catalunya's broad wartime administrative framework, which gave local councils latitude to issue their own fractional currency.
Turró catalogues this as a single known type for the municipality. Production quality across issues of this kind varied enormously; a village with a printer got sharper results than one relying on a rubber stamp and a hand-cut stencil.
