Have any of you see one of these?

I really did not know they were made of metal, also Drivers License were too.

I had no idea that was a thing. Neat piece of history.

Ya, their cool.
These were produced by private business as a novelty item. The paper 1s dont wear well. I wrap mine in packing tape.
In the 1930s this was the fad.

The original credit cards were literally just bits of metal like these with your number on them too, really cool stuff.
