Anyone from Illinois? Anyone know anything about this merchant? When they were in business etc? Just wondering before I put it on the bay. I know some of y'all have books and are quite the sleuths. I checked Tokencatalog.com but no luck! Any comments?
This might help a little. His first name was actually Conrad and it look like he was a beer distributor in Freeport Illinois. This comes from the Freeport Journal 22 April 1939.
Y'all rock! I don't know why he chose a scalloped token but hey he paid for it and it's none of my business! Maybe he knew somebody in the future would be talking about it. I was hoping it was from the 1800's, yep that's how my luck rolls.
