Celle's municipal small-change notes of 1922 belong to the vast Kleingeldscheine wave that swept German cities during the hyperinflationary spiral — local authorities printing their own fractional denominations simply because Reichsbank coinage had vanished from circulation almost entirely. Eduard Binder was a local Celle printer, and the municipality kept production in-house rather than contracting one of the large specialist firms that handled notgeld for dozens of cities simultaneously.
The reference suffix breakdown — 1/2#0226.4a-1/4 — suggests this is one of several variants within the issue, likely differing by date, signature, or serial configuration.
