Beschrijving voorzijde Central vignette presents a caricature of the 1980s Australian Treasurer rendered as a hooded grim reaper figure with a crooked nose and scythe, set against an underprint of tangled electrical equipment. The satirical design alludes to interest rates that rose from 9% to 18% under his tenure. Letterpress text occupies the lower portion with the voucher terms and store details.

Opmerkingen

Electric City was a short-lived local currency experiment run out of Perth in the early 2000s, part of a broader wave of community currency schemes that briefly gained traction across Australia during that period. The "Electric City" identity references Perth's long-standing unofficial nickname, derived from its early adoption of electric street lighting in the 1890s — one of the first cities in Australia to do so.

Local scrip of this type was typically redeemable at participating businesses within a defined network and was never legal tender. Survival rates are uneven; many were redeemed and destroyed, others simply discarded.
