Neufelden is a small market town on the Große Mühl in Upper Austria, and this 1920 Krone note is one of the Notgeld issues that flooded Austrian municipalities after the collapse of the Habsburg economy left the country chronically short of small-denomination coinage. The designer, Klemens Brosch, is the note's most significant attribute — a gifted Linz-born graphic artist who died in 1926 aged just 36, leaving behind a body of work that collectors of Austrian Notgeld actively seek out.
Jos. Feichtingers Erben was the established Linz commercial printer responsible for a number of regional Notgeld commissions during this period.
