I have a coin/token from my Grandfather’s collection that reads, “Now Playing” “Mastbaum Theater” “10 cents a dance”. He grew up in Kensington. I see that a film with this title was released in 1931. Does anyone know the origin of this token? Was it used as a ticket to get in? Was it simply souvenier? I’ve been researching the theater and think it’s a shame that it didn’t survive!
