Anmerkungen

Weißenfels am Saale was a mid-sized Saxon town with a significant shoe manufacturing industry, and its local Notgeld issues from the early 1920s inflation period were produced by individual businesses and venues rather than the municipal authority alone. The Union Theater note is among the more unusual issuers — a cinema or variety hall covering its own small-denomination change shortage, a practice that became briefly normalized across Germany between roughly 1917 and 1923 when pfennig coinage effectively vanished from circulation.

Private venue-issued Notgeld of this type rarely survived in quantity. Most were redeemed quickly or simply discarded once the immediate coin shortage eased.
