Beschrijving voorzijde Printed in dark blue and black on a coarse, greenish-grey paper ground, the central vignette presents a bold silhouette of Burg Tost (Tost Castle) rising above a treeline, with the castle name rendered in Gothic (Fraktur) script beneath. Flanking the central panel are two symmetrical ornamental cartouches in deep blue, each containing stylised foliate scrollwork with Gothic architectural motifs in reserve. The denomination text and payment order, also in Fraktur script, are arranged in a curved panel at the lower centre, with the account designation 'Konto E' at lower left and the serial number at lower right; the printer's imprint 'Flemming-Wiskott-A.-G. Glogau' appears below the lower frame.

Opmerkingen

Gleiwitz in 1922 was one of the most politically charged towns in Europe. The 1921 Upper Silesia plebiscite had returned a majority for Germany, but the League of Nations partition awarded a substantial industrial slice — including much of the coal and steel belt — to Poland anyway. The Oberschlesischer Kulturverband emerged directly from that fracture, a cultural-political association promoting German identity in a region suddenly divided by a newly drawn border.

Emergency notgeld issued by cultural bodies rather than municipal governments is uncommon; this note reflects the acute small-change shortage that persisted across German-speaking territories well into 1922 alongside runaway inflation. Carl Flemming & Wiskott's Glogau press was a frequent supplier for Silesian notgeld runs.
