| Opmerkingen |
Bielschowitz was a small industrial commune in Upper Silesia, then firmly within the German Empire, and like hundreds of similar municipalities it resorted to printing its own fractional emergency currency in 1917 as the imperial war economy stripped metal coinage from circulation entirely. The Reichsbank's official Kleingeld shortage by mid-war was acute enough that even village-level authorities were formally permitted to issue notgeld to keep local commerce functional.
J. P. Himmer of Augsburg supplied many such municipalities across Bavaria and Silesia — their notgeld commissions during this period were essentially a bread-and-butter operation, printed in bulk and shipped to issuers who often had no printing infrastructure of their own.
