Reverse description The reverse is printed in red and blue-grey on a yellow ground, enclosed by a red geometric border. The main vignette occupies the full field and depicts a lively scene of seven male figures in working and civilian dress — rendered in a bold, expressionist letterpress style — gathered before a stall backdrop bearing the Kiel anchor-and-cross arms. A four-line redemption notice in German is set across the top of the field, while Low German dialect verses flank the central title cartouche 'NORDISCHE MESSE KIEL' at the foot; the artist's name 'VOGLER' appears beneath the cartouche.
