The Philippine National Bank's Negros Occidental emergency issues of 1941 were authorized following the Japanese invasion, when regional branches were cut off from Manila and empowered to issue their own emergency currency to keep local commerce functioning. Bacolod, as the provincial capital and center of the sugar industry, was the logical hub for Negros Occidental's wartime monetary operations.
The Negros Occidental series is among the better-documented of the Philippine provincial emergency issues, partly because the sugar plantation economy generated enough commercial activity to leave paper trails. Genuine circulated examples often show the handling stress you'd expect from notes pressed into daily use during an occupation.
