Comment

Associated Leisure Group (Ltd.) was made up of several different companies operating out of London England circa 1970s... Originally the company was known as Phonographic Equipment Company (issued tokens with PE on them), they then merged with Ruffler & Walker in 1968 to be known as PRW (Phonographic Ruffler & Walker) and later became Associated Leisure Ltd. around 1970 -- some of their subsidiaries were/are "Playtime", Dreamland Amusement Park, ALL, PRW and others -- the tokens were used in Jukeboxes, arcade games, and other amusement machines of the type. The company later changed its name to RANK and is currently known as GAMESTEC -- May be listed in "British Machine Tokens" by Raslph Hayes as are some of the PRW and PE tokens.
