FA: Old Chicago Striptease Club Token, "Good For 5c in Drinks"
 

The "French Casino" is listed in Chicago Confidential (1950) under
"Palaces of Peel" where one can see "Bare Babes," though stripping was
illegal in Chicago then. A scarce if not rare token, listed as R5
(highest rarity R6) by the late Ore Vacketta in his catalog of Illinois
trade tokens. The condition of this token might be improved by having
some corrosion "stripped off," however.

Check my other auctions for a rare Chicago Greek association token
dated 1901, some Illinois provisional sales tax tokens of 1933, a set
of very nice medals issued by Benchmark bourbon, interesting Latin
American tokens, and a few other items. I've been asked by a friend in
the coin club to help him dispose of a token collection that he
acquired through an estate, and this is the first in a series of
auctions.

Thanks for looking!

Hmm, I wonder how much a guy could drink for 5c.
