When Japan severed Indochina's sea links with metropolitan France in 1940, the colony could no longer receive freshly printed currency from Paris. The Banque de l'Indochine's solution was blunt: overprint existing stock of the 100 Francs P#12c with new authorization text rather than wait for supplies that weren't coming. The overprint distinguishes this issue from the base note, though the underlying Deloche-engraved plates remained unchanged.
Marguerite Dreyfus — who signed her work as "Rita" — was one of very few women working as a professional banknote engraver at the Banque de France during this period.
