Comments

Sankt Ulrich is a small rural commune in Upper Austria, and this 10 Heller note is a product of the Notgeld wave that swept through Austria in 1920 — a period when coin shortages were so severe that thousands of municipalities, down to the village level, issued their own emergency paper. The printer, Litill Fretzel of Steyr, handled a considerable volume of regional Notgeld for Upper Austrian communities during this period, working out of a town that was itself issuing emergency currency simultaneously.

The Jaksch/Pick reference JPR0940-10 places this within the documented Upper Austrian municipal series, though surviving examples from very small communes like Sankt Ulrich tend to appear infrequently — low original print runs and heavy local use account for that.
