| Beschrijving voorzijde | Cream-toned note printed in dark red-brown letterpress throughout, framed by an ornate floral and geometric border with stylised foliate corner devices. The issuer name 'St. Johann im Pongau' is set in large blackletter type across the upper field, preceded by the printer's imprint 'Buchdruckerei' above. A small central vignette of a haloed religious figure — likely the patron saint — appears within a decorative cartouche between the denomination numerals '50' flanking left and right. The lower register carries the liability text in Gothic script, with 'Heller' repeated at each lower corner. |

St. Johann im Pongau is a market town in Salzburg province, and like hundreds of Austrian municipalities it resorted to locally printed Notgeld during the severe coin shortage that began in 1916. What makes this note unusual is that the printer and the issuer are the same entity — Buchdruckerei R. Holzer was a commercial print shop, not a bank or civic authority, effectively self-authorizing emergency currency for local use. Whether any formal municipal backing existed is unclear from surviving records.
Small-town Notgeld of this type was rarely serialized or controlled with any rigor, and redemption was often patchy at best.
