Commentary

Aucune information sur l’usage de ce jeton de la Cité Perret, un ensemble de logement collectif construit en 1956 près de la gare ferroviaire d’Oran. Cependant un collectionneur nous signale que dans un immeuble situé à proximité, les occupants devaient acheter des jetons pour utiliser l’ascenseur et ainsi contribuer aux frais de fonctionnement et d’entretien.
There is no information on the use of this token from Cité Perret, a collective housing complex built in 1956 near the Oran train station. However, a collector tells us that in a nearby building, occupants had to buy tokens to use the elevator and thus contribute to operating and maintenance costs.
