Notes
This book explores all aspects of the phenomenon of 19th century pub tokens against the twin backgrounds of pubs and the Birmingham die-sinking industry. It presents a fascinating picture of small workshop enterprise in Victorian Britain and deals fully with the ways in which the tokens were used - featuring music halls, clubs, games and pleasure gardens and other strands of the leisure and working life of the period.
