Show World Center token, a piece of exonumia (collectible tokens, medals, or other non-coin objects) associated with the infamous Show World Center in Times Square, New York City.
Here's more information about the token and the establishment:
Origin and Purpose: These tokens were used to operate coin-operated peep shows and other adult entertainment attractions at the Show World Center, an adult entertainment complex located on 8th Avenue near 42nd Street in New York City.
Show World Center: Known as "The World's Greatest Show Place," Show World Center was a prominent establishment in the Times Square area, particularly during its grittier era before major redevelopment efforts.
Historical Context: The token represents a piece of New York City's past, specifically the history of adult entertainment in Times Square before the area's significant transformation and cleanup in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Current Status: The Show World Center is now permanently closed.
