Banque de Ste Farce, a relatively modern spoof note in the form of a 1000 Francs, 1 April 1983, serial number E.457 799, advertising what appears to be an antiestablishment and anticlerical bookshop or library in Paris, the note is meticulously designed to mimic the original note, down to every one of the original allegorical figures being redesigned and the borders changed into sausages or similar, very fine and scarce, an amusing item
£100-£150

This lot was sold as part of a special collection, The Sir David Kirch Collection of Skit Notes.
