Thompson's Restaurant

That is a pretty piece.

I was able to acquire one of these today at the 46th Annual Redwood Empire Coin Club Show in Santa Rosa, CA. It's certainly not in perfect condition, but not bad for a small amountt of money I suppose. I asked an older dealer about this piece, and he mentioned that he used to see more of these in the past, but that as of late, this seems to be one of the rarer pieces around. This piece will fit nicely into my slug collection.

Here's a nice one...
