Farbwerke vorm. Meister Lucius & Brüning — the chemical giant that would eventually become part of Hoechst AG — was one of hundreds of German industrial firms forced to issue their own emergency currency during the hyperinflation of 1923. The Reichsbank simply could not print fast enough. At its worst, firms were paying wages daily, sometimes twice daily, in notes they had printed themselves.
Notgeld issued by private industrial concerns carries a legal curiosity: it was technically an advance on wages, not currency, which allowed companies to sidestep certain monetary regulations while their workers spent the notes locally before the value evaporated by afternoon.
