See the Golden Bubble matches

I got two binders of old Nevada matchcovers recently and added several hundred really nice covers to my casino collection. I thought these from the Golden Bubble in Gardnerville were particularly interesting since the successor casino, Sharkeys just changed hands.

I believe they are in order of issue, left to right based on the style and phone numbers. Anybody have more info to add on the old Golden Bubble?

The Gaming Table lists owners as Wilson, Johnson, Zeigler. There may be some other names to add if you believe these ad matches... Clyde and Helen Stone. Anybody know who Oscar and Bill were?

By the way, what's the significance of this name? Related to the gold mined in the area?
