Reverse description The reverse serves as a ruled order or inventory list form, headed by the cursive Latin title 'Jegyzék' (List) in decorative green script at the top centre. The body consists of a printed grid of horizontal and vertical ruled lines forming a multi-column table, left blank for handwritten entries. The ghost underprint of the 100 Kronen banknote vignette is faintly visible through the paper, and the printer's imprint 'Kellner és Mohrluder, Budapest' appears in small letterpress type at the foot of the sheet.

Comments

Andrényi Kálmán Utódai was a commercial firm in Arad — then a prosperous Hungarian city, now Arad, Romania — that issued this emergency or promotional scrip note in 1913, the kind of private paper circulated by large trading houses and retailers as a credit instrument or advance payment token. Such issues were entirely legal under Austro-Hungarian commercial practice but operated outside the official banking system entirely.

Kellner és Mohrluder of Budapest were a minor commercial printing house, not a security printer in the formal sense. The survival rate for this class of private municipal scrip is low; most were redeemed and destroyed as a matter of routine accounting.
