Re: Old Winnemucca postcard
In Response To: Old Winnemucca postcard ()

Felix's Hotel is of course visible and was only in business a short time. Felix's Hotel ands Casino was opened in the old Ferris Hotel building in November of 1957, it then burned in 1958. So, Felix Turillas, went back to his "Felix's Club in Lovelock.

The joint with the star is indeed the Star Hotel. Across the stret to the right on the corner is The Texan which was open from 1-11-58 to 3-28-58. Previuous to that The Mint was there from 5-11-55 to 8-10-56. Later became The Red Bull that Mackie owned.

Other joints in Winnemucca were:

Humboldt 313 Bridge Street

Atomic Club 233 Bridge Street

Farris/Ferris/ Felix's Hotel 229 Bridge Street

Overland Hotel 215 Bridge Street

Peppers Club 241 Bridge Street.

There were lots and lots more, I am just a little crowded for time right now.
