Camp 32 was a German prisoner-of-war camp located near Hull in the East Riding of Yorkshire. These internal camp scrip notes circulated among prisoners in lieu of British currency, as regulations under the Geneva Convention required that POWs be paid for labor but prohibited them from holding sterling.
By 1946 the war was over, yet thousands of German prisoners remained in British camps — repatriation moved slowly, and labor was still being extracted for agricultural and reconstruction work. The scrip continued in use well into the postwar period for that reason.
Paper camp currency of this type was produced in enormous variety across British POW installations, with no standardized printing authority overseeing them.
