Langenhorn is a small parish in Nordfriesland, and its 1921 Notgeld issue is notable partly for its designers. Ingwer Paulsen was a local Frisian artist of some reputation, and his involvement in municipal emergency currency — rather than purely commercial or civic illustration work — was not uncommon in the early Weimar period, when hundreds of German municipalities commissioned artists to produce visually distinctive small-denomination scrip.

Gebh. & Kunze operated out of Flensburg, the dominant printing center for Schleswig-Holstein Notgeld issues in this period, serving many of the surrounding rural communes that lacked access to larger presses.
