for sale3 Caliente Casino,Tijuana Mexico, casino chips

Just got these chips of the Caliente Casino, Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico. Not sure what price will be in the future, but I can sell now a few sets of three chips at $21 per set, total, postpaid to US addresses. (Note that the chips say dollars ($), but the amount is actually so many MEXICAN PESOS. For example, the casino cage gives you "$100" chips for 100 pesos, worth about $8 USD (used to be $13 recently). PayPal OK. Return priv.

I have them on eBay now ( http://www.ebay.com/itm/161446804583 ); some good links there to the Casino's home page, etc.

The Tijuana Caliente casino is at the site of the old Agua Caliente Racetrack, which flourished along with the old famous Agua Caliente Hotel-Casino resort from 1928-1935. It attracted the Hollywood elite and many others during the U.S. Depression. It was the grandest resort in the Western hemisphere during its heyday. For example, it offered the world's largest prizes at its racetrack, golf course, etc. Horse racing was discontinued in 1992, but dog racing with betting continues. The recently completed grandstand building features world-wide sports betting, a host of gaming machines, and even live table games at times.

Here are links to my web pages about the old Agua Caliente resort, and the current Caliente Casino:
