...one of the last KY illegas to close in 1961 when the Federal crime commission was called in over the George Ratterman fisaco. Story in the Saturday Evening Post 1960 says there were over 150 illegals in Newport.

Owned by the Cleveland Syndicate, ran by Martin Miller, Joe Berman, and Red Masterson.
Martin was a good friend and a gentleman. He started me in chip collecting roughly 1963.
Scan below is April Flowers, one of the players in the George Ratterman, a former Cleveland Brown quarterback, fiasco.
