This "Good Luck" coin conjures up scenes of New York City nightlife in the 1930's and 1940's
Leon & Eddie's was a New York City nightclub
It was run by two long-time entertainers, Leon Enkin and Eddie Davis
The club featured entertainers including comedians, dancers, and strippers
Some famous names performed there, including Jackie Gleason, Bob Hope, Red Skelton, and Milton Berle
It was located at 33 West 52d Street and had a back wall with caricatures of Leon and Eddie thumbing their noses at each other, as depicted on the token
The club closed in 1953, and the building was later demolished
This good luck coin is most likely from the 1930's when "good luck" coins were popular
