| Obverse lettering | Eine Mark Not- und Wechselgeld des Zoologischen Gartens in Hamburg welches nur in der Not gewechselt wird bis Ende November 1921, vielleicht auch noch später, wenn nicht alle Scheine verkauft sind. Wer Tiere liebt und den Zoo erhalten will, kaufe recht viele Scheine und schicke sie an seine Freunde, am besten nach auswärts. Hartung & Co. m.b.H., Hamburg |
| Reverse description | Orange underprint with a central illustration by O. Herrfurth showing the Hamburg folk figure "Hummel" — a tall man in a top hat carrying two buckets on a yoke — leading a procession of townspeople including women and children across an arched architectural backdrop. The denomination "1 Mark" appears in green Gothic lettering at the top, with numeral "1" in large green type flanking a central Fraktur verse panel at the bottom. The artist's signature "O. Herrfurth" is visible at the lower right of the vignette. |
| Reverse lettering | 1 Mark Unentwegt und vielbewundert Von Jahrhundert zu Jahrhundert Wandelt Hummel durch die Zeiten, Bringt uns in Verlegenheiten. 1 Mark |
