Sassy's was a bar or tavern in Chetek, Wisconsin — a small town in Barron County — and this note is a classic example of American local merchant scrip, issued as in-house currency redeemable for goods or services rather than as a negotiable instrument. Towns like Chetek generated dozens of such pieces through the twentieth century, typically printed by local job shops on whatever stock was available. The extreme miniature dimensions here suggest this was cut from a larger sheet rather than purpose-manufactured to a standard scrip size.
