Comment

Bal du 3è arrondissement.
François Bonnal bought a wine merchant's business in 1920 and decided to open a ball. To get customers up and dancing, he called on François Vidalenc, an accordionist from the Cantal region of France. He in turn bought the establishment in 1930. There are tokens bearing the names of both owners.
