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 collapse of small-change supply in 1936–37. These local emissions — known collectively as "paper moneda" or billetes locales — were authorized under Republican decree and produced in enormous variety, with quality ranging from professional lithography down to near-amateur printing. Tremp's issue falls into the latter category.
Turró remains the essential reference for cataloging this material, and 2604 places this note within a well-documented but thinly traded segment of the series.
