| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central intaglio vignette of an allegorical European woman wearing a laurel wreath seated alongside an African woman with elaborate braided hair and beaded necklaces, both flanking a young African child. The denomination MILLE FRANCS appears to the left alongside the date and two manuscript signatures for Le Président and Le Directeur Général, with the issuer's title BANQUE DE L'AFRIQUE OCCIDENTALE in a panel across the top. Two classical caryatid figures form the background underprint, framed by a foliate guilloche border with the numeral 1000 in each upper corner. |

| Opmerkingen |
The Banque de l'Afrique Occidentale served as the note-issuing authority across French West Africa from 1901, operating under a concession from the French state rather than as a central bank in the modern sense. This series straddles the fall of the Third Republic and the Vichy period — notes dated within this range circulated under dramatically different political administrations without any change to the paper itself.
Marguerite Dreyfus, who signed her engraving work as "Rita," contributed to a number of Banque de France productions during this period. Jules Piel was among the more prolific engravers on the Chamalières workshop roster in the 1930s and 1940s.
