| Reverse description | The entire field is occupied by a bold expressionist multicolour vignette in a woodcut style, signed "Kolhau" in the upper left corner, illustrating a scene from the Faust legend in which a red devil figure drags the prostrate body of Faust toward the left amid swirling demonic creatures set against a turbulent background of interlocking lines in blue, green, red, and yellow. A yellow banner along the lower edge bears the denomination numeral "50" in red at each corner, with a Blackletter inscription centred in black between them. |
