                 GERMANY OCCUPATION WW II. SPECIAL ISSUES.

    (All items in this section listed by first trial catalog “German

    Occupation in WW II of the Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Belarus and

    North Russia(Pskov & Leningrad Regions). Special Issues of Paper Tokens

    - “money substitutes ” by Ants Kulo & Juri Rudich, Tallinn 1999. #KR. )

    After the German army had swept through the Baltic countries and

    invested Leningrad, the economic development of the Baltic area was

    important. Among the products that Germany controlled were textiles

    and fibers. In order to maximize the amount removed to the homeland,

    the quantities used by the local inhabitants were rationed. The notes

    described below were the vehicle for that rationing.

 

    Eastern Region Fabric Point Tokens /

    Ostland Spinnstoffwaren - Punktwertschein.

    The holder of this note is entitled

    to purchase x points worth of fabric material. After redemption, cancel

    by cutting in half. All punkte tokens listed below not full used and

    don’t cut any place.
