<p>[QUOTE="BRandM, post: 1973265, member: 22729"]When Robinson died in 1884 the <i>New York Clipper </i>(September 13, 1884) published an obituary and picture of Robinson. The article noted that in 1866 he closed his traveling show in Chicago and built Yankee Robinson's Coliseum and Zoological Garden at State and Washington Streets. This may be why some of his tokens were given Illinois designations.</p><p><br /></p><p>Bruce[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
