| Beschrijving voorzijde | Typographically composed emergency note printed in red ink on a light ground, with a scattered pale green star underprint across the field. The design is entirely textual, enclosed within a single-line rectangular border, with no pictorial vignette — characteristic of wartime Catalan municipal issues. All inscriptions are set in plain letterpress type, citing the issuing authority, guaranteed value, and date of issue. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Unprinted reverse on plain cream-yellow card stock, with no deliberate typographic or pictorial elements applied. A faint blind impression of the obverse text and border frame bleeds through the stock, incidental to the letterpress printing process rather than by design. |

Viladecavalls is a small municipality in the Vallès Occidental comarca of Catalonia, and like hundreds of similarly modest towns, it issued its own emergency paper money during the Spanish Civil War after the Republican government's decree of May 1937 authorized local authorities to produce small-denomination currency to address the acute coin shortage. The peseta coins had vanished from circulation almost entirely — hoarded, melted, or simply gone — and without fractional currency, ordinary commerce ground to a halt.
Turró catalogs this as #2770, placing it among the documented Catalan municipal issues, though surviving examples from Viladecavalls are genuinely scarce given the town's small population and the chaos of the Nationalist advance into the region in early 1939.
