A while back I mentioned that the Naples Little Club should be considered a Florida chip. I was told I need more proof
I was checking the eagle and snake chip on CG and saw it listed as the International B&B Club in El Paso, Texas. Hmmmm…. I guess I missed the proof on this one.
Gambling was illegal in El Paso. There were no clubs. The International B&B Club was in actuality The International Book & Stationary Company (not a club). The place was a chip distributor for USPC. Juarez Mexico (across the river from El Paso) had many gambling joints. Chips for Juarez were sent to The International B&S Co. to then be sent to Mexico
Also, the snake and eagle is on the Mexican flag
So, the CG can keep it in Texas since I assume there is proof. However I have it as a Mexican chip on my site
