Pöndorf is a small Upper Austrian municipality that, like hundreds of others, resorted to printing its own emergency currency — Notgeld — after the collapse of the Habsburg monetary system left coin almost entirely absent from everyday trade. The 30 Heller denomination is characteristic of the smaller fractional values issued to handle transactions that postwar inflation made awkward with standard notes. Reklame Puka was a Linz commercial printing and advertising firm, not a specialist banknote printer, which accounts for the modest production quality typical of municipal issues from this region.
