Vallcebre is a tiny mountain municipality in the Berguedà comarca of Catalonia, with a population that barely reached a few hundred during the 1930s. That such a settlement was issuing its own emergency paper money in 1937 speaks directly to the collapse of small-denomination coinage during the Civil War — Republican-controlled areas faced an acute shortage of copper and bronze coin, and hundreds of Catalan municipalities responded by printing their own fractional notes, known collectively as "moneda local" or, more pejoratively, "paper de duro."
El Secretariat Català printed for numerous small Catalan issuers during this period, functioning as a clearinghouse printer for municipal emergency currency across the region. Turró's catalog documents well over 2,000 such issues; this note sits at #2651 in that sequence.
