| Opmerkingen |
Gleiwitz occupied an uncomfortable position during the Upper Silesian plebiscite period of 1920–1921, when the entire region's political future hung on an internationally supervised vote. The Oberschlesischer Kulturverband — an ethnically German cultural organization — issued this Notgeld as part of a broader effort to assert German identity and institutional presence during that fraught interval. It was political currency in a very literal sense.
Flemming & Wiskott in Glogau handled a substantial volume of Silesian Notgeld printing during this period, and the engraver credit to Flemming within the same firm suggests in-house plate work rather than a contracted artist.
