I was going to say that there was no gambling here, but it’s iconic so I included it anyway. Just to confirm, I looked in Fuller’s Index Plus, and it’s listed…in 1972! So I’m guessing that they might have had a slot machine, or two, for a brief period of time.

Unsuccessful as a miner, Samuel Langhorne Clemens went to work for the Territorial Enterprise Newspaper in Virginia City. While working there, in 1863, he adopted the pen name Mark Twain.
