| Opmerkingen |
The Banque de l'Indochine operated as a private colonial bank with note-issuing authority across French Indochina, French India, and several Pacific territories simultaneously — a remarkably broad mandate for a single institution. This 1939 issue came off the presses at Imprimerie Chaix in Paris just as the supply chain between France and its Southeast Asian colonies was becoming genuinely precarious, with wartime shipping disruptions soon making replacement stock difficult to move.
Marguerite Dreyfus, who signed her engraving work as "Rita," handled the reverse plate — one of the very few women credited by name on a colonial banknote of this period.
