Invoicing and lot pick up will NOT be available at the live auction.
Lot of 5: 1) Three saloon tokens. Tokens include a 5 cent, 10 cent, scalloped, and free drink. Tokens in very good to mint condition. 2) Pint and half pint slugs read "The Occidental, Oakland Cal. Frank Pereira Proprietor." The establishment was located at 874 Washington in the 1899 Oakland directory. This address changed to 477 8th St. as of the 1909 directory, leading one to assume that while Pereira`s building may have not survived the 1906 Earthquake, his business did at a different location. Both bottles are clear and have screw tops and footed bases. Both have small air vents on base and ground tops. Pairings of matching flasks and tokens are rare, and a great opportunity to round out your collections of flasks and tokens! - Feisel Collection -59113
