Pam, great memorabilia from the Town House. I wish I could have seen it. The ad with Fay Baker
is interesting. He was from Mina and owned Bakers Bar there. I remember rummaging around in
it after it closed. There was an old 21 table and I found a poster with the name of the bar which
I gave to Willie Wolf at the Mina Club. I worked with a pit boss at the Overland who knew Fay and
he told me he had a wooden leg. Fay was associated with several other clubs in Reno. There is an
entry in Kling on him. Years ago somebody told me the TH was on of Bill Harrah's favorite haunts.
