Product Details

Vintage-style adult humor token marked “The Octoroon – Madame Bolanger – Los Angeles.” The front reads, “You Will Receive Sport Enough to Last for a Year to Come,” while the reverse reads “All Night $3 Check.” The word “octoroon” is an outdated historical racial term once used for a person believed to have one-eighth Black ancestry. It also became associated with 19th-century literature and stage entertainment, giving this token a strong connection to the language and imagery of its era. Interesting brothel-style exonumia piece with old Los Angeles, adult humor, saloon, theatrical, and token-collector appeal. Approx size: 1.5 inches Condition: Vintage condition with dark toning, surface wear, and handling marks. Lettering remains bold and readable on both sides. Please review photos for exact condition.
