As for the Ideal Bar...your cover could very well be older than the 1950's. The Ideal Club was listed in the 1939 phone book, as well as all the state-wide phone books that we have from 1945-1952, at 251 Bridge Street with the phone number of 56. It's actually listed like this: Ideal Club liquor 251 Bridge.......56 (well, their printing isn't quite as bold, but the word liquor is in a lighter font, so it isn't part of the name. BUT...the Ideal Club listing is gone by the 1955 phone book.
Searching the 1955 phone book, I found that Monte's Club is listed at 251 Bridge...and they have the phone #56. (TGT #3 lists Monte's Bar, Bridge St, Winnemucca, opened 1940's-closed 1940's).
Hmmmmm....
The 1939, 1945 and 1950 phone books, in addition to the Ideal Club, all list: Montero F liquor 251 Bridge........56
Monte's Club is still listed in 1959, but is gone by 1963.
Hope someone found this interesting!
