| Reverse description | The reverse is printed on the same lavender card stock in plain letterpress, carrying a continuous explanatory text in eight lines of uniform black type. The text explains the temporary and utilitarian nature of the voucher, authorizing its use as full or partial fare payment on any line of the collective. The issuing authority, El Comité Obrero de Control, is cited at the foot of the text block. |
| Reverse lettering | ESTOS VALES SE ESTABLECEN CON EL EXCLUSIVO OBJETO DE FACILITAR LOS CAMBIOS ANTE LA DIFICULTAD DE ENCONTRAR MONEDA FRACCIONARIA; TIENEN POR LO TANTO CARÁCTER TRANSITORIO Y SU VALOR DE CINCO CÉNTIMOS PUEDE SERVIR PARA EL PAGO TOTAL O PARCIAL DE LOS BILLETES QUE SE ADQUIERAN PARA TRANSITAR POR CUALQUIERA DE LAS LÍNEAS DE ESTA COLECTIVIDAD. EL COMITÉ OBRERO DE CONTROL (Translation: These vouchers are established for the sole purpose of facilitating change due to the difficulty in finding small change; they are therefore temporary and their value of five centimos can be used for the full or partial payment of tickets purchased for travel on any of the lines of this collective. The Workers' Control Committee) |
