CRYSTAL PALACE TOMBSTONE ARIZONA; Rx: GOOD FOR 12 1/2c IN TRADE. The Crystal Palace is still a popular going concern in Tombstone today, now under new management! This token is listed as rarity R9 (3-6 known) LARS.
Originally known as the Golden Eagle Brewing Company, this establishment was one of early Tombstone's first saloons. Burnt down in the devastating 1882 town fire, but was soon rebuilt in the same spot - as the renamed Crystal Palace Saloon. It occupied just a small lot of about 50 by 30 feet while the brewery was in another structure to the rear. Named after its builder, Benjamin Wehrfritz, the Wehrfritz Building was expanded by adding a second story to house the offices for such notables as U.S. Deputy Marshal Virgil Earp, attorney George W. Berry, and Dr. George E. Goodfellow. It is even known that "Buckskin" Frank Leslie was a night watchman here for a short time. [CrystalPalaceSaloon.com]
