Comment
The Paul Bunyan Center opened in 1950 and closed in 2003, the statues of Paul and the Blue Ox moved to a new location to This Old Farm east of Brainard, my guess is this token is from the early days of the Center, early to mid 1950'shttps://www.brainerddispatch.com/newsmd/6-paul-bunyan-moves
