Henri Bélanger operated a small dairy in Quebec City in the postwar period, and tokens of this kind — printed on colored paper stock and issued directly by the dairy — were a practical solution to the deposit-and-return system for glass bottles. The color coding, red here, typically distinguished pint denominations from quart or half-pint equivalents within the same dairy's internal system, reducing errors at the doorstep.
These ephemeral dairy chits were never intended to outlast a single transaction. That any survive at all is largely accidental.
