Here's a Crystal Bay Club chip from Lake Tahoe, made in 1969. A $5 shown, but a similar $25 also exists.
The Gothic / Old English type font always seemed curious to me. Doesn't match the graphic style of chips made before or since, and it never translated to outdoor signage, as far as I can see on postcards.
I guess the owners at that time, or the chip designers, chose to mix it up!
