A Depression-era or mid-century merchant scrip token note — the kind issued by small Chicago grocers and liquor retailers to make change when coin shortages made small transactions awkward. L.D.C. Foods & Liquor has left no substantial paper trail beyond the scrip itself, which is not unusual; most such issuers operated at the neighborhood level and kept no records that survived into archive collections.
The note's survival at all is the mildly interesting part. Most merchant scrip was redeemed and discarded within days of issue.
