| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bold expressionist woodcut-style vignette in blue, green, and yellow on cream paper, with a serrated border framing the entire note. The central scene shows two gymnasts in silhouette, rendered in black and yellow, flanking a vertical pole or tree trunk and clasping hands above it, against a deep blue background scattered with white highlights. A heraldic shield bearing the initials 'M.T.V.B.' appears at the base of the central motif, flanked by stylised foliage, with the denomination '1 MK.' and the legend 'M.T.V. 1875. BREMEN.' inscribed along the upper border, and the printer's credit 'G. HUNCKEL, BREMEN' at the lower right. |

| Opmerkingen |
Männer-Turnverein Bremen von 1875 was a gymnastics club, not a bank — which makes this note a product of the Notgeld phenomenon, where German civic organizations, municipalities, and private firms issued their own emergency scrip during the severe coin shortage of 1917–1921. Clubs of this type typically issued small denominations to cover internal transactions: membership fees, canteen tabs, equipment deposits.
G. Hunckel was a local Bremen printer with no particular pedigree in security printing, which is exactly the point — Notgeld issuers worked with whoever was nearby and available.
