Wilster is a small market town in Holstein, and its municipal savings bank — the Städtische Sparkasse — was among hundreds of local German institutions that resorted to printing their own emergency fractional currency during the acute coin shortage that followed the First World War. These Kleingeldscheine filled a genuine transactional gap at a moment when the Reichsbank could not produce low-denomination coinage fast enough to meet everyday commerce.
Theodor Gries was a Hamburg commercial printer with no particular prestige in the field — workmanlike output, modest production runs, typical of the regional printers drawn into Notgeld work by volume demand rather than specialist expertise.
