B. Max Mehl coin dealer token

DCW

Here is a recent pickup that I thought I'd share, a "Good luck" token from legendary coin dealer, B. Max Mehl. It's interesting. I never knew he had advertising tokens struck, and this is the first one I've seen for sale.
Have a look:

That's really cool.

He issued a number of different ones. Has anyone cataloged them

What a strange design on the obverse. Any idea what it is supposed to represent?

I'd say 1930s. Many of the Good Luck tokens displayed the swastika in earlier times. When Hitler came to power it obviously took on a new meaning. So this is probably post 1933.
