These foil doilies were used on the DC-3s that
flew gamblers to the El Cap. I imagine many
were destroyed in the 1969 crash. I remember
when several businesses were located where the
front parking lot is now. There was a display
case where those prize-winning fish were displayed
in 1966 when I first visited. I was told the El Cap
was one of the last casinos to use silver dollars.
I remember when they had craps, roulette an
d
21. Until recently there was a display case that
displayed chips, ashtrays, keno stuff an a lot of
other stuff. I was told it was sold to a collector.
