Denomination numerals "25" appear in decorative cartouches at upper left and upper right, with the artist's name "BRUNO HANDKE" inscribed across the upper margin. A pink panel at the base carries the full text inscription, three facsimile signatures of the Stadtbank board, the issue date, and the historical reference to the Battle of Hohenfriedeberg (1745). |

Striegau — now Strzegów in southwestern Poland — was a textile and granite-quarrying town in Silesia, and this 1921 issue belongs to the enormous wave of German municipal emergency money (Notgeld) that flooded circulation after the First World War, when small-denomination coins effectively vanished from commerce. The Stadtbank commissioned F. A. Brockhaus of Leipzig, a firm better known for encyclopedia publishing than banknote printing, though Brockhaus maintained a respected printing and engraving operation that handled numerous Notgeld commissions during this period.
Bruno Handke's design credit is unusually specific for a municipal issue of this type — most Notgeld commissioners left artists uncredited.
