Comments

A trade token in banknote form from a bowling alley and pizzeria in Barron County — Chetek Lanes has operated in various incarnations along Highway 53 for decades, and scrip of this type was typically issued for redemption against food, drinks, or game credits rather than as change-making currency. The lamination is notable: most small-venue paper scrip was unprotected, and the laminated finish here was almost certainly a durability measure against bar-top spills and frequent handling.
