Jonas Øglænd was a bicycle manufacturer in Sandnes who built DBS — one of Scandinavia's most commercially successful bike brands — but during the German occupation of Norway (1940–45), severe coin shortages forced local businesses to issue their own emergency scrip. This note is one such nødmynt substitute, circulating among workers and local tradesmen when Riksbank coin simply wasn't available. The dual signatures of J. Øglænd and Lars Øglænd reflect the family-run structure of the firm at the time.
Printed locally by Ingvald Dahle rather than a professional security press, these notes were never intended to circulate far or long.
