I was going to keep quite but since you mention it....
The Moulin Rouge is not a confirmed Las Vegas Stick. Some people say it's from New Orleans. I guess I should ask the swizzle stick club about that stick.
The Castaway Stick is from the Wreck Bar in Florida (which is another location that made great sticks). If I’m not mistaken, the Castaway Stick was made by Funshine Plastics out of Florida. Swizzle stick makers were like some of the chip makers in the 40’s – 50’s they were regional (W.C. Newman was big in Las Vegas). Stir-IT and later on Royer were the only national swizzle stick makers.
Jim, I store a lot of my swizzle sticks like you do but I have most of my Casino Sticks in Slot Club Coin Cups
