C.1916 S. Whittaker, General Merchant, Briercrest, Sask. Type 1 10C Token #730g

$34.95

Sinclair Whittaker started the general store shortly after the railroad went through in 1912. In 1916 due to the shortage of change, tokens were issued. In 1923 there was considerable controversy about the round tokens being mistaken for coinage of the realm. So to avoid any trouble the round tokens were taken out of circulation and the octagon set issued. These tokens were used until 1942. The bread token was issued in 1932 as a convenience in making change and used until 1939. Mr. Whittaker gathered up all the tokens when he sold and saved them.
