ChipGuide - A Catalog of Casino Chips and Collectibles

353 Broadway 353 Broadway East St. Louis, Illinois Type: Illegal Status: Closed Open: Late 1930s, Close: 1940s Long time handbook and short time casino run by “Mulepole” Fritz in the late 1930s and 1940s. His place was apparently plush and was taking all the business in town which didn't sit well with the local operators who repeatedly threw bombs into the place. As a concession he removed the craps tables and just ran the handbook (bombings continued). About Illegal Casinos - by their nature, information about illegal, or unlicensed, casinos is hard to find and difficult to verify. Information presented on the ChipGuide about these casinos is provided as the result of our best efforts but may not be 100% accurate. Even if the information is accurate, gamblers move around and may take their equipment with them; items used in one casino may have also been used in others. Please send verified information about illegal casinos to the ChipGuide so that we may improve our accuracy.
