Historical Background
The
Bank
Club
was
Reno's
second
gambling
operation
to
open
its
doors
to
gamblers
in
1931
,
immediately
after
the
State
of
Nevada
legalized
gambling
in the
state
.
It
had a
floor
space
of
5000
square
feet
and
operated
until
1952
when
it
joined
with the
Golden
Hotel
to
become
the
Golden-Bank
Casino
. With their
close
social
and
cultural
connections
to
western
Nevada
,
it
is
likely
that
residents
of the
OWens
Valley
visited
this
club
.
