The Caisse Centrale de la France d'Outre-Mer was established by de Gaulle's provisional government in 1944 specifically to provide a monetary mechanism for liberated French territories — a deliberate separation from Vichy-tainted institutions. This note was part of the initial issue, produced in London while the war was still running.
Edmund Dulac, best known as a book illustrator, designed several of the Allied occupation and liberation currency series during the war years, working from London. Bradbury Wilkinson executed the engraving. The pairing was unusual for colonial currency of the period, which rarely attracted designers of Dulac's reputation.
