A question for CASABLANCA (movie) freaks - CR

Was Rick's club in Paris "La Belle Aurore" or was that just the name of the joint he first met Ilsa... and, if it was his club; did Rick's conversation with his Roulette croupier (conversation about a winners payout of 20,000Frf and the nod later to the croupier to land the ball in number 22) have any reference/regard/indication that the dealer had worked for Rick prior to his Casablanca club employment, and possibly in Paris?

History tells us that Roulette was illegal in Paris and its environs (still is).

I think there are six colors/shades confirmed (Monarch mold) on the table... and payouts were correct.

Does anyone have pictures of what chips were in the age (design or whatever)?
