505-507 12th Street
Sacramento, California
Type: Card Room
Status: Closed
Open: 1940s, Close: 1966

Also called the "Five-O-Five Club". The club was owned by John J. Riolo, while the card room was controlled by Otto Heintz.

C. W. Rice shipped 2117 of the the"MO" and "O&F" HHL-mold chips in six colors to the 505 Club at 507 12th Street between 1962 and 1972. These chips had traditionally been associated with the Weeping Willow (Lincoln, CA), but that attribution is now in doubt.

Advertisement from 8/30/1962 and photo of the interior of the card room from 9/7/1962 (The Sacramento Union).
