<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Manbeast, post: 1750688, member: 32353&quot;]I acquired this at a show this past weekend. The dealer said he had no clue as to what it is or era it is from other than what it says. I am thinking it may be depression scrip but am unable to find any info. I have sent emails to the Lamar county Chamber of Commerce and the historical society inquiring about the signature and past Chamber of Commerce presidents.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Lamar County Chamber of Commerce issued 5 cent scrip.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The signature looks like T. E. Belew. I found a Thomas Eugene Belew in the 1940 census residing in Paris, TX with an occupation listed as proprietor (unable to see the 1930 census).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I haven&#039;t found anything on the Trust Officer signature which I think reads Monro Fleming.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Any help would greatly be appreciated.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i1060.photobucket.com/albums/t452/Randall_Yarbrough/Lamardepressionscrip5c_zpsbe5bedb1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i1060.photobucket.com/albums/t452/Randall_Yarbrough/Lamardepressionscrip5c2_zps52c3e1d0.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
