Comment

Token not listed in the two R. Weiller catalogs.

Established by Nicolas Schneider and Amélie Beltrame in rue Gare-Usines, an immigrant workers' neighborhood in Dudelange. The exact date of Nicolas Schneider's takeover remains unknown, but dates from before 1922. Nicolas Schneider died in April 1926 at the age of 38. His widow continued to run the business for some time (> 1938).

Weiller token no. 50. This token was probably issued during the period when the widow Schneider-Beltrame ran the establishment.
