Re: Lido & New Recreation Club

I have 8 different Mason cards on the New Recreation Club. Thousands of chips, cash value and in trade chips. Must have been a big operation.

Lido chip was shipped to John Murray in KC in 1936. I have 3 different colors, pink, blue, and yellow.
Lido Club was at 31st and Troost St. As Estelle said it was a good size joint.
Troost St had a large number of gambling dens. I have tracked a number of them through the Mason cards and fellow KC chipper Chuck Smith has done a whole lot of leg work for me. He has been able to place some of the chips that only had names of the person that ordered them, through old records and talking to people.
