The Deutsch-Ostafrikanische Bank's 1915 emergency issues are among the more remarkable products of the First World War's colonial theater. When the British naval blockade cut off German East Africa from its metropolitan supply lines, the territory's German administration — under the resourceful General Paul von Lettow-Vorbeck — was forced to improvise an entire wartime economy. Currency was part of that improvisation.
Paper supplies were critically short, and some notes in this series were printed on salvaged or locally sourced stock, giving surviving examples noticeably inconsistent paper quality. The colony held out until after the Armistice — the last German force to surrender — which means these notes circulated for the full duration of the war.
