| Anmerkungen |
Oberammergau's notgeld issues of 1921 are among the most deliberately artistic of the Bavarian municipal series. Brendamour, Simhart & Co. — a Munich firm with a strong reputation in fine art reproduction and lithography — produced these for a community whose entire economic identity was already built around the Passion Play, performed every ten years since 1634 as fulfillment of a plague vow. The 1920 Passion Play cycle had just concluded when these notes were printed, and the municipality was capitalizing on the international attention it had drawn.
Collector demand drove most of this series out of circulation almost immediately. Genuinely circulated examples are the exception.
