Newman Portal Adds Philippine Emergency Notes

Through the courtesy of author Kenneth J. E. Berger, the volume Philippine Emergency Notes : Counterstamped, Signed & Initialed (CSI) Cebu Province is available on Newman Portal. Following the December 1941 Japanese attacks on Hawaii and the Philippines, increased government expenditures and public hoarding created a need for emergency money, which was authorized by the Philippine government in late 1941. Berger’s work focuses on the counterstamped, signed, and initialed notes issued by the Philippine Central Bank in the Cebu region. An addendum to the work, also available on Newman Portal, supplies color illustrations of many of the Cebu notes.
