Stopped at the Mizpah Hotel a couple days ago returning from Northern Nevada. I was glad to
see a small museum had been installed in the old vault. I remember when owner Lester Short
had his office in there and he gave me an old yellow $25 Mizpah chip that was one of a kind
for quite a while. I stayed there before it was remodeled when they had craps, 21, roulette
and keno in the casino. There was a sign over the bar that read, Oh, give me a big silver
dollar/ To throw on the bar with a bang/ A dollar all creased will do in the East/ But we want
our money to CLANG! Also picked up a few matches at a local shop. I especially liked Tokyo
Toni's, an obvious brothel.
