Thanks, but after watching the movie "Las Vegas Nights" (Tommy Dorsey, with an early brief appearance from Frank Sinatra) made in 1941, I saw some early clubs, like the Northern Club, Boulder Club, and Club Nevada (sign showed Nevada Club, but Tommy Dorsey referred to it in the movie as Club Nevada), I did a little research and found several clubs not listed in the Campiglia and Wells price guide. There is a "Turf" in the guide, but not a "Turf Club" like my research indicates did in fact exist in the late thirties and into the forties (maybe beyond that, just a little). It may very well be the same casino/club. Maybe some one out there knows. Thanks, once again for your help.
