Opmerkingen

Colmar's municipal emergency notes of 1918 were issued under Allied occupation following the German withdrawal from Alsace — a territory that had been Reich territory since 1871 and had never previously issued French-authority local paper. The Ville de Colmar faced an acute small-change shortage in the chaotic weeks of the armistice transition, well before the French Treasury could normalize currency supply in the newly reintegrated departments of Haut-Rhin and Bas-Rhin.

Albert Jess was a local Colmar printer, which places this note firmly in the tradition of improvisational municipal issue rather than coordinated wartime monetary policy. The JP#130 reference covers at least three catalogue varieties within this denomination, suggesting multiple print runs or authorization dates across a short issuance window.
