Commenti	Printed locally in Algiers by Dupuy & Cie rather than shipped from metropolitan France, this note reflects the administrative reality of wartime North Africa — Allied landings in November 1942 had severed normal supply chains, forcing the Banque de l'Algérie to rely entirely on domestic production capacity. Clément Serveau, a French illustrator and poster artist with prewar commercial credentials, contributed designs that were adapted for local printing rather than the intaglio-heavy work typical of Paris or London security printers. The small physical format was a deliberate response to paper shortages still affecting Algerian supply stocks in 1944.
