Tremp is a small town in the Pallars Jussà comarca of Catalonia, and like hundreds of Spanish municipalities it issued its own emergency paper money during the Civil War after the Republic's central banking system collapsed and metal coinage vanished from circulation almost overnight in 1936. These local issues — collectively known as "moneda de paper" or papel moneda municipal — were produced with whatever printing resources the town had to hand, which accounts for the enormous variation in quality across the series.
Turró 2601 is among the more obscure Catalan municipal issues, with surviving population genuinely limited by the small initial print run and the chaos of the postwar years.
