Is there any body out there who know much about what period is the " Good for Tokens " are from? I am guessing after the 1900's to 1920's. Looking for any good reference books on them.

I already own many of the books on Civil War Tokens ( 1861-1865), US Merchant Tokens ( 1845-1860), Hard Time Tokens( 1833-1844), and US Trade Tokens (1866-1900 ) ref; Standard catalog of United states Tokens 1700-1900

I been buying some tokens labeled " good for tokens " but have not seen much reference on them. Here are some examples of them.
Bloomington Indiana Good For Token. 2 1/2 Cents Tom Huff In Trade. Phone 2319.

Nampa Idaho Good For Token. Pete's & Joe's Place Nampa Idaho. Good For 5 In Trade.

Looking for a good Reference Book I have a feeling they may be separated by the States which makes it hard if you have to buy all the different books buy State. Any information Thank you in advance
