Re: Illegal Of The Day CO-LA-LV-Floor Sweep Update

Update to the CO initials on the Floor Sweeping.
This post is attached to the original post, if you want to refresh your memory.

Finally heard from the Denver Library (nothing yet from Trinidad’s library).
The Denver Library sent this info from the 1939 Colorado State Business Directory:

The 1939 chip delivery address was 207 N. Commercial. Malouff’s billiard hall on N. Commercial was originally located at 207, but apparently some time in the 1930’s he moved it a few doors down to 233. He’s probably residing upstairs at 207 when the chips are delivered (he was in 1930).

My note: We now have a Club name for the chips. “Malouff’s Billiard Hall”

Here’s a photo of N. Commercial from 1939 which shows both addresses (ground level 207 is a bar & grill in 1939):

A photo from 1916 which shows that for many years pool halls, bars and cigar stores were to be found on that part of N. Commercial:
