| Obverse description | The note is divided into three vertical panels with a scalloped border. The left panel carries a Gothic-script verse in black letterpress, with the printer's imprint 'J.A. Himmer-Augsburg' at the foot. The central vignette presents an Expressionist-style illustration of a male figure pressing his clenched fist against a crumbling brick wall, rendered in bold black outlines over a blue-grey wash. The right panel bears the denomination '75' in large Gothic numerals beneath the title 'Gutschein über', with the issuing place 'Kahla S.-A.', the issue date 'den 15. Okt. 1921', a serial number, two facsimile signatures above the designations 'Bürgermeister' and 'Stadtrat', and the expiry notice 'Verfalltag 31. Dez. 1921'. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in black on cream paper with a scalloped outer border. The upper portion carries a decorative light-blue scrollwork underprint with the numeral '75' in the upper-left corner. Below the heading 'Deutsche Wirtschaftskurven.' two statistical line graphs are presented side by side: the left chart illustrates unemployment office demand ('Andrang bei den Arbeitsnachweisen') with separate curves for male ('männl.') and female ('weibl.') job-seekers per 100 vacancies from February 1920 to January 1921, while the right chart records the cost-of-living index ('Lebenshaltungs-Indexziffern', base 1913/14 = 100) as monthly averages over the same period. The series letter 'B' appears at the lower-left corner. |
