Comments

Jönköping Tramways maintained tram traffic in Jönköping in the years 1907-1958.

The regular token introduced in 1942 were two-sided and had at the back text "Gäller för enkel spårvägs resa"(Valid for single tram journey)." Two variants were: Cu-Ni plated brass and brass only.

REV: Gäller för enkel spårvägs resa; WorldTransportation 360 AH

A variant with baksidetexten "Gäller för enkel resa" (Valid for single journey) was also introduced, perhaps in 1949 when the price for a single trip was raised to 25 cents.
