Arys was a small Prussian garrison town in Masuria — today Orzysz in northeastern Poland — and its 1920 Notgeld issue appeared during the plebiscite period, when the whole region was under Allied supervision ahead of the July 1920 vote on whether to join Poland or remain with Germany. Municipal Notgeld was technically illegal under plebiscite regulations but tolerated in practice, as the Reichsbank simply could not supply enough small-denomination currency to keep local commerce moving.
Flemming & Wiskott in Glogau were among the more prolific Notgeld printers of the period, handling commissions from dozens of Silesian and East Prussian municipalities simultaneously. The plebiscite returned an overwhelming pro-German result; Arys stayed German until 1945.
