Depression Era Scrip Information

[Fenntucky Mike]

Anyone know of  a good book, website, article, etc. on depression era scrip (trade scrip)? If there is a reference that is Michigan specific even better.

Thanks,

The catalog is the The Standard Catalog of Depression scrip by Mitchell and Shafer.  It was published in the 1980s but it is comprehensive for information.  The pricing is outdated.

Rod Charlton, who runs the website, lives in Michigan and undoubtedly knows more about Michigan Depression Scrip than anyone else.

Thanks, hadn't come across that catalog yet. I'll see if I can find it. 

Been on the website, briefly, I'll spend some more time there and maybe give Rod a shout.

Rod can be difficult to get a hold of at times so be patient.
