The Banque de la Martinique was not a central bank in any modern sense — it was one of several colonial privilege banks established in the French Antilles under 19th-century legislation, with note-issuing rights tied to the plantation economy. By the time this 100 Francs note was issued, the institution operated under close supervision from Paris, and its plates were executed by the Banque de France's own printing workshops — an arrangement that kept colonial currency production firmly under metropolitan control.
Danger and Gaspérini were a well-established pairing at the Banque de France atelier, responsible for some of the more refined intaglio work in the interwar period. The wartime years of this note's validity span — 1940 to 1944 — saw Martinique under the Vichy-aligned administration of Admiral Robert, during which the island was subject to a naval blockade and severe economic disruption.
