Description	Faro bank game at Bank Club in Reno, Nevada. Card dealer at at right center standing at table. Players seated around table. Sign with betting limits on wall at right. Inscription on photograph in lower center: "Faro Bank Club Reno, Nevada." Title supplied by cataloger.
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.
