Blesa is a village in the Teruel province of Aragon — a region that saw some of the most grinding attritional fighting of the Spanish Civil War. Like hundreds of other Republican municipalities in 1937, the local council issued its own emergency fractional currency after the withdrawal of metallic coin from circulation, a phenomenon so widespread that the Republican government eventually tried, with limited success, to suppress and standardize it. These municipal issues are collectively called "billetes locales de necesidad."
The Gari Monovar census documents this as a distinct type within the Blesa issues, suggesting at least one variant exists. Survival is a matter of luck — many were redeemed, many more were simply lost when the Nationalist advance through Aragon in spring 1938 ended Republican administration in the region entirely.
