Translation of information found on https://www.deplate.be/nl/trefwoorden/radio-marleinThe "Radio Marlein" radio store was founded in 1934 by Mr. Oscar Marlein. It was located at Christinastraat 85 in Ostend (Belgium). The company expanded and moved to Kapellestrat (rue de la Chapelle), at the corner of Jozef IIstraat (rue Joseph II). It was later taken over by Mr. Marcel Marlein. Photo of the store circa 1938, still at Christinastraat:
Advertising flyer from August 1961:
The telephone number is identical to that on the token: we can therefore assume that the token is from this period.
