Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse carries a bold expressionist-style vignette in black ink on cream paper, depicting the so-called 'Lübsche Adler' (Lübeck Eagle) rendered as a grotesque double-headed bird biting its own tail in a circular composition, evoking a local heraldic motif treated with satirical humour. A red horizontal bar separates the vignette from the caption text below. The artist's signature 'A. Mahlau' appears within the vignette, and the printer's imprint is at the foot.

Opmerkingen

Alfred Mahlau was a central figure in Lübeck's graphic arts scene, later closely associated with the Werkkunstschule there — his involvement in even a minor municipal emergency note speaks to how seriously some German cities approached notgeld design during the postwar coin shortage. Gebrüder Borchers was a local Lübeck printer, so this note was conceived, designed, and produced entirely within the city.

At 44 × 36 mm, it is among the smallest notgeld pieces issued anywhere in the 1921 wave — closer to a postage stamp than a banknote.
