BREINGAN Ronnie: Scottish Transport Tokens
The History Press 2009
Paperback ISBN 9780752447643 Looks unread. Tokens were in fact the tickets of their time. Paper tickets did not come into use until about the 1880s and in Glasgow on the tramways from the late 1870s. By selling a number of tokens transport firms were assured of the custom of these passengers. This also saved the conductor or guard, as he was sometimes called, from handling cash and was thus also a security precaution. Today much ot the tokens' value is actually in their history and that of the people who used them, and this nostalgic look back at Scotland's transport tokens ensures that they are gone but not forgotten. Ronnie Breingan is a past president of the Glasgow & West of Scotland Numismatic Society and a keen coin, token and bank note collector. Illustrated. 128 pages Wt 0.4 Kg Fine

4.90 GBP
