Eckartsberga, Saxony-Anhalt, Germany Notgeld

This edition of Notgeld comes to us from Eckartsberga, Germany. It’s interesting to note that this Notgeld was printed by Reineck & Klein, just down the road in Weimar. Reineck & Klein was a lithography concern in Weimar. It is interesting to note that Max Nehrling worked as an apprentice there from 1902 – 1906. In 1942 he was listed as a member of the Reich Chamber of Fine Arts. It is unlikely that he had anything to do with these Notgeld.
As you can see these notes are round and printed on paper. The 25 Pfennig notes have quotes of some sort on them. I have an assortment of 6 different quotes. I am not sure if there are more. I know that there are not any less.
I am sort of wondering if the pictures on the 50 & 75 Pfennig notes are of the folks whose quotes are on the notes below.
Obviously this is the obverse of the 25 Pfennig note.
The notes below are 50 Pfennig. Again, perhaps the pictures are the ones who generously provided the quotes for the smaller denomination notes. Aren’t they kind?
Obverse of 50 Pfennig note.
More equally kind and generous folks. I suppose they were a little more noteworthy. Hence, they are on the larger denomination note, the 75 Pfennig.
