| Reverse description | The entire reverse is occupied by a colourful landscape vignette executed in a painterly letterpress style, showing a panoramic view of the hills and wooded valleys around Orlamünde at dusk, with a warm orange-red glow along the tree-lined horizon beneath a blue sky with sweeping white clouds. An inset pen-and-ink drawing of Burg Lauenstein castle appears in the upper-left corner, captioned 'Burg Lauenstein', with the artist's signature 'Sporleser' rendered in the lower-left of the landscape. A tan banner at the base bears the local folk-legend inscription in blackletter script. |
| Reverse lettering | Burg Lauenstein Weiße Frau v. Orlamünne, sie kann keine Ruhe finne. |
