André Krajewski was a French merchant and financier operating in New Caledonia who issued a series of small-denomination emergency notes — bons de caisse — to address the chronic shortage of fractional currency that plagued the territory in the years immediately following World War One. Private issuing by commercial houses was not unusual in New Caledonia at the time; official small change simply could not keep pace with local demand.
The choice of A. Carlisle & Co. in San Francisco reflects the Pacific commercial axis that connected New Caledonia more practically to California than to metropolitan France for many printing and supply needs.
