French Chambers of Commerce were authorized to issue emergency fractional notes during and after World War I to address a nationwide shortage of small change — centimes coins had effectively vanished from circulation, hoarded or melted. The Bordeaux chamber's 50 centimes notes circulated locally well into the early 1920s before the Chambre's emission rights were wound down by central decree.
Gounouilhou was a long-established Bordeaux printing house, not a specialist security printer, which accounts for the relatively modest production values of this series. The watermark is the primary anti-counterfeiting measure.
