| Opmerkingen |
Querfurt is a small town in Saxony-Anhalt, and its decision to issue emergency currency in 1921 places this note squarely in Germany's Notgeld period — when municipal authorities, businesses, and even individual firms printed their own fractional notes to compensate for a chronic shortage of small-denomination Reichsmark coinage. J. A. Schwarz of Lindenberg im Allgäu was one of the more prolific Notgeld printers of the period, handling commissions from municipalities across Germany.
Heinz Schiestl was a Würzburg-based illustrator and woodcut artist whose work appeared on numerous Notgeld issues — his involvement here is the one detail that lifts this note above the purely municipal and into the realm of applied graphic art.
