Cleveland Ohio Token?

[Butterfield]

J. Pechkaitis (a/i) // Good For / 5¢ / At The Bar (a/i) Bronze, 22mm. I found a Justin Pechkaitis, born in Lithuania in 1876, listed in the 1930 Cleveland, Ohio census as being 53 years old. Does anyone know if I'm on the right track with this token?

You are definitely on the right track, just a few years too late. On the September, 1918 WWI Draft Registration card for Justin Peter Pechkaitis of Cleveland, he states that he is a saloon keeper. Nice find!

here's some supporting information---the 1919 dunn bradstreet. justin p... listed as a saloon in cleveland. it is not in the maverick listing i check.

maverick saloon tokens are less $$$ than ones with saloon on the token and/or the town name but people are correcto-moon-doe...tokens are better than the average copper nickle or some silver coins.

try on ebay and put the word SALOON real big. put a reserve bid.

that's pretty cool too finding info in draft papers.
