Comment
The existence of a ball at this address dates back to 1891. Several tenants left behind tokens bearing their name, including Gaston Guibert (1911-1923), Marcel Comini (1926-1932) and Antoine Dufayet (1932).This token, which is a variant of model #861, is not listed in Lucien Lariche's book. It features 13 festoons, compared with 16 for the listed token. On the obverse, there is a comma after the number 90, unlike the known model. On the reverse, there is a dot under the number 20 instead of a dash.
