Re The International B&B Club, El Paso:
1) There is exactly one known pink. I believe that you are missing a zero in the value
2) International B&B Club is actually "International Book & Stationary Co". The place is a chip distributor. (My Keno chips were also delieverd there as were many die-cuts)
3) Although the International B&S was in El Paso, I am 99 and 44/100% sure that the chip was for a Juarez, Mexico joint. Note that the eagle and snake design is on the Mexican flag. I also believe that most all El Paso chips ended up in Juarez. In the early 20th century Juarez was like Reno today --- gambling joint after gambling joint. Juarez was just across the river from El Paso which did not have gambling.
Having said all that, does anyone care?
