Well, this Brunswick & Co. token dates from 1892-1895 or so. The company sold backbars, billiard tables, and other fixtures to hotels, saloons, billiard halls, etc. When a customer bought a high-ticket item like a backbar, the company would sell him a number of tokens for use in his establishment. So it is hard to tell just looking at the token what kind of business Kline was in, but it would be pretty safe to say that he had a pool table in it. How about a hint as to what part of the country you got it in - Kline is a relatively common surname. Okay to post on TokenCatalog.com ?
