Forst, a textile town on the Lausitz Neiße, was one of hundreds of German municipalities forced into emergency currency issuance as postwar inflation gutted the Reichsmark's practical utility for small transactions. This note is Notgeld in the strict sense — a stopgap, not a collector's piece, though the market for decoratively printed Kleingeldersatz quickly created its own perverse incentives, with some towns issuing far more than local commerce ever required.
Heinz Schiestl, a Würzburg-based graphic artist with a background in religious illustration and woodcut-influenced design, contributed work to numerous Notgeld commissions in this period. Carl Flemming & Wiskott in Glogau was a well-established printing house with a long history in maps and illustrated printing before the Notgeld boom brought them municipal contracts.
