Every one of our vintage poker chip bolo ties is handcrafted with premium USA-made leather cord that’s braided on precision Italian braiding machines by our friends at Weaver Leather Supply, feature a genuine vintage poker chip, and are finished with a stainless steel tension clasp that glides smoothly and effortlessly until you lock it into place.
Materials:
Vintage Diamond Jim’s Poker Chip (c. 1962-1969)
Premium USA-made leather cord
Stainless steel tension clasp
Sizing:
All of our bolo ties are 36 inches long which we find to be the most versatile size for all torso lengths.
History:
Diamond Jim's Nevada Club was a small downtown casino on Fremont Street that was originally part of the older Nevada Club, before it was rebranded as “Diamond Jim’s” around 1962. It became well-known as a lively, fast-paced gambling spot, famously boasting a jackpot every half a minute. The club’s bold red-and-white neon burned brightly during the “Glitter Gulch” era when Binion’s Horseshoe, Golden Nugget, and The Mint were all packed shoulder-to-shoulder, competing for cash in a sea of light and sound. In the end, Diamond Jim was cut down in his prime when in 1969 the Golden Nugget began a westward expansion that ate up both Diamond Jim’s Nevada Club and the Lucky Nevada Club.
