Bradbury Wilkinson printed this series for Banco de Portugal during a period of acute monetary instability — Portugal had suspended gold convertibility during the First World War and never meaningfully restored it, leaving the escudo in sustained decline through the early 1920s. The 50 Escudo denomination was substantial enough that inflation steadily eroded its purchasing power across the print run's three-year span.
The "2nd. print" designation distinguishes it from the first Bradbury Wilkinson run of the same design, typically differentiated by minor typographic or serial number range variations rather than any fundamental redesign. Bradbury Wilkinson supplied numerous Iberian and colonial issuers during this period, and the Portugal account was among their more active commissions.
