Agreed that these are Covington, not Newport Mecca. I guess I never dug in to know the difference.
When these were ordered, most references say "Carr Bros Cafe", but by 1946 they were calling it Mecca Cafe.
Makes me think, if the smkey "Mecca" chips were found with these, I would think they would belong to the Covington location, not the Newport.
From 1946: Name, address, owner and gambling. The quadruple!
