Amongst other things I picked up over the weekend, I found a shot glass engraved with the Bridge Cafe, Covington-Newport, KY. The glass looks new, but I was wondering if this place/joint ever had gaming back in the heyday of illegal clubs in that area of the country. I also picked up a somewhat beaten up clock from Bally's Grand that looks like 2 hockey pucks glued together. It doesn't work & I can't imagine how much it would cost to fix. I did change the battery but no luck. I also happened upon a rather unusual ashtray from Loews Monte Carlo, Monaco made in Bavaria. Last but not least a plate made exclusively for Royal Caribbean Majesty of the Seas & Robert Mondavi Winery. The front of the plate has a blue detailed rendering of the ship on the high seas. The back has the story about the "twin introduction" of the ship & the wine on April 26, 1992. The plate may have been given to passengers who took the innagural cruise.
