Illegal Casino Lammers - Possibly Al Capone's!

Today we talk about a set of chips or lammers that were posted here yesterday. These chips or lammers being said that they were from Al Capone's Cotton Club that was located in Chicago, Illinois at 5342 W. 22nd St., Cicero. It was said to be one of the most popular bars and speakeasies that the Capone family ran. Now, this set is specifically interesting because it has a note/letter written by the City of Cleveland Department of Public Safety, Eliot Ness, who was the director. Saying that this was a set of chips or lammers that were taken from the last or final raid that they did on the Capone mob. Although some of these lammers or chips were used at different places, there is a possibility that at the very beginning they might have used these for chips. I'd love to say that, but can't be 100% sure knowing what I do and reading the comments that were posted here yesterday. Very interesting stuff and an awesome letter! Hope you enjoy!

What's your thoughts about these? I'd love to hear!
