| Opschrift voorzijde | 75 PF VEREINIGUNG ZUR KUNSTPFLEGE LÜBECK GÜLTIG BIS 30 OKTOBER 1921 GRÖNING |
| Beschrijving keerzijde | Bold woodcut-style vignette executed in black on cream paper, entirely filling the note within a thick dark frame. The composition presents a panoramic view of a Gothic brick church — likely Lübeck's Marienkirche or a comparable medieval edifice — rendered in a stark Expressionist idiom with strong contrasts between black masses and reserved white lines. Multiple pointed arches, lancet windows, stepped gables, and twin spires are visible, while a row of trees and small figures occupy the foreground streetscape. An artist's signature appears in the lower right margin of the vignette. |

Lübeck's notgeld output during the inflationary years attracted considerable local artistic investment, and the Vereinigung zur Kunstpflege — a cultural arts promotion society — was among the more unusual issuers: not a municipality, not a bank, but a private cultural body issuing scrip under emergency currency conditions. That a fine arts organization had both the standing and the practical need to issue circulating notes in 1921 says something pointed about how thoroughly the German monetary system had broken down.
Gröning's design credit is rare enough to be worth noting — most notgeld designers went unrecorded. The DeNG reference groups three closely related varieties under a single catalog entry, suggesting minor text or color differences between issues rather than distinct printings.
