eBayVariety Club, Fl,chips mob ties, 11 PM (ET)

Running my second auction of these chips. Got some new information about mob ties to the Club, cited in the eBay listing. Auction ends at 11 PM (ET) tonight:

The chips say Variety Club (Tent) 33. The famous Variety Club always called their chapters "Tents." Tent 33 was the old Variety Club of Greater Miami. (If nothing else, go to the auction listing and read the incredible, true, heart-rendering story of the origins of the national Variety Club in Pittsburgh.)

The chips come from a Florida woman who says her mother used them in an illegal gambling place. Other information is in the listing.
