As I mentioned in my last Illegal Of the Day post on the Purple Krackle:

When time permits I have asked for further research on East Cape Girardeau, IL. Another chip ID question from East Cape Girardeau, IL came to me in email in the last few days. It has to do with Lake Tahoe, NV casino chips possibly used there. I think there is a possibility and have asked for research on them.

This could be some very interesting research especially if those Tahoe chips were actually confiscated in an Illinois State Trooper raid. I have some very interesting pictures and data suggesting they were.

By accident (let’s call it OLD AGE) I had John Murray who bought the JM and T-W chips for the LIDO in Kansas City included in this research.
One interesting fact came back on John which I have now included in the LIDO file that will be on this site:

John Murray was murdered in 1946 at the Hyde Park Hotel in KC (shot by a 33 year old woman).
I think that confirms he did not get the Tahoe chips in 1956.
