50 Céntimos Camarasa

Camarasa is a small municipality in the Noguera comarca of Lleida, and like hundreds of Catalan and Spanish towns during the Civil War, it issued its own fractional currency when Republican-zone coin shortages made small change effectively impossible to obtain. The Consell Municipal authorised these notes under the broad emergency powers extended to local governments by the Generalitat de Catalunya in 1937.

Imprenta Unió Obrera in Balaguer — itself a collectivised print shop operating under anarcho-syndicalist management during this period — produced emergency scrip for several Noguera comarca towns, which accounts for certain shared typographic characteristics across the series.
