Auction 100 Bourbon Street $100 Chips (Excellent Condition) (1 Viewer)

This was the original $5, with a street lamp...owned by the Canadians at that point, so peek into the gas lamp and you'll see a Canadian maple leaf in it...

Canadian mob?

Based in Gatineau, Quebec the maple syrup mob of the 70s was nothing to be trifled with.

Love the colors of the Bourbons. The Canadian mafia connection is interesting...gonna have to read up on that.

Don't think it was Mafia, but you never know...likely given the owners were real estate guys, but they did subsequently lose all their wealth when NEP was enacted n the 80's...
