| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in red and black on cream paper, framed by an ornate botanical border with trefoil corner ornaments. At centre, a large numeral '75' appears above the municipal coat of arms of Kleve — a red shield charged with three trefoils and a smaller inset shield — enclosed within a rectangular inner frame. Below the arms, the place and date of issue appear in Gothic script, followed by the facsimile signature of the Bürgermeister, a printed serial number on a lined band, and a validity clause in two lines of Gothic lettering; the town name 'Cleve' appears in bold at the foot. |

| Reverse description | The reverse carries a central multicolour vignette of the Lohengrin monument in Kleve, rendered in green, ochre and brown tones, set against a sky of clouds with surrounding parkland trees; a caption 'Lohengriндenkmal' appears below the image with the series number '3' at lower right. Beneath the vignette, eight lines of Gothic verse from the 'Cleve Lied' (stanza 3) are printed in black, and the town name 'Cleve' is set in bold within the red lower border panel, flanked by heraldic trefoil ornaments. The outer border repeats the botanical and trefoil decorative scheme of the obverse, printed in red. |
