This joint was 312 miles up river from New Orleans so I doubt that it was the house that Eric Burdon & the Animals made famous but these chips do have some history. I found these two at the convention and I am asking $10 each delivered. LMK
The Gaming Table Revised Edition made no mention of the chips BUT...
