New Town Tavern, 600 Jackson Ave, Las Vegas, in 1967. Photo by Clinton Wright. One of the oldest clubs in Las Vegas, destroyed by fire 10/15/2023.
Town Tavern was opened Jul. ‘55 by owners Marie and Earl Turmon, locals who lived at nearby 708 Madison. In its heyday of the late 50s the 24-hour bar, casino, and coffee shop was central to Westside’s nightlife scene. After the closure of the Moulin Rouge in Fall ’55, Town Tavern became the main Westside destination for black performers who were headlining the segregated Strip hotels.
Nat King Cole, Sammy Davis Jr, Cab Calloway, Arthur Lee Simpkins, Bob Bailey, Dorothy Dandridge, and the Ink Spots all performed in a single night during an NAACP cocktail party in Dec. '55. Review-Journal columnist Forrest Duke wrote of another night when, “Pearl Bailey and her Flamingo gang sashayed over to Earl Turmon’s Town Tavern Wednesday night, and the joint was, to put it rather mildly, jumping.” Another columnist’s blurb describes an employee’s going-away party with music by jazz musicians Christine Chatman (singer, piano), Al Morgan (bass), Chuck Hampton (drums), and Bob Bailey as emcee, “there with his lovely wife Anna who dances in the Pearl Bailey’s Flamingo show.”
The club became “New” Town Tavern in late ’59 and operated more or less continually until 2013. Westside's nightlife scene deteriorated in the 60s – the unplanned byproduct of integration was the decline in black gaming establishments, but Town Tavern remained. Florence Elmore owned the club in '70-71. Danny Curtis & Elijah Green bought the club in '71; Green was still the owner in the 80s, renovating and enlarging the club after a fire in '81. In the 90s it became “Ultra New” Town Tavern and continued operated under this name until closing.
Town Tavern originally had a top hat-shaped sign. Its second sign with "Town Tavern" in a ribbon and "Casino" in a circle, was installed in the early 60s and remained until 2023. In 2016 the words "Town Tavern" were replaced with "Tokyo" for a casino which ultimately never opened. The sign was removed from the building on 8/16/2023.

It was Shady Rest Barbecue, licensed for slot machines on 9/17/42, and Club Alabam, aka Smokey Joe's Club Alabama the following year. Fuller's Index of Nevada Gaming Establishments says the Club Alabam was licensed for 21 from 5/1/43 to 7/2/43. City Commission Meeting Minutes of 7/2/43 (p97) states that the liquor and gaming license of Joe LaDue at Club Alabam was denied. The club burned down 9/29/43. Liquor License.

417. Mary Clark - Crimson Crystal Adventure 4: Stop That Witch! (1985)
The last of the Crimson Crystal series, this one keeps the gimmick of having red cellophane through which you can discover secrets in images, but jettisons the idea of a Crystal in terms of story completely, replacing it with a magical coin that gives the player magical vision (which then serves the same purpose as the crystal).
In this story the player has to save his village from a witch which has turned all its people into lizards. The witch is quite powerful so you get the assistance of a cleric who isn't particularly competent. With a great Elmore cover and some pretty bad interior illustrations by Mario Macari (who also did the worst illustrations in the Fantasy Forest series) it's an ok book in terms of play and story, but nothing special.
We come, then, to the end of the Crimson Crystal series which joins Fantasy Forest and HeartQuest in the pantheon of short lived TSR gamebook series. Endless Quest and AD&D Adventure Gamebooks (or Super Endless Quest) would continue their runs into the late 80s (with Endless Quest coming back periodically in the 90s and 2010s).

Queenathon II - Bingo
This is one of the two ways to join in the Queenathon readathon! Each of the prompts on this bingo board were inspired by Queen - either the band, their achievements, or their songs. Except for the yellow diagonals which are activities so that you can still make progress on the board even if you aren’t reading! Below the cut I’ll go through each prompt, row by row, and give a more thorough explanation of them. Songs they were inspired by are in brackets beside the prompts.
And remember - books CAN count for multiple prompts! So you may be able to get a bingo with just one or two books!
1. 5 Star Prediction (The Prophet’s Song)
Read a book you predict you’ll enjoy enough to give 5 stars!
2. Friend Rec (You’re My Best Friend/Friends Will Be Friends/Dear Friends) Read a book a friend has recommended or picked out for you.
3. Adapted into a movie or show featuring one of the BoRhap cast
Quite possibly the hardest prompt in this readathon. Read a book that was adapted into a movie which features an actor who was also in Bohemian Rhapsody, the Freddie Mercury Biopic.
Suggestions:
Rami Malek: Breaking Dawn - Stephanie Meyer, a James Bond novel - Ian Flemming, Henri Charrière‘s autobiography Papillon, The Story of Doctor Dolittle - Hugh Lofting, The Night At The Museum - Milan Trenc
Ben Hardy: X Men comics, The Woman In White - Wilkie Collins, The Girl Before - J.P. Delaney, The Statistical Probability of Love At First Sight - Jennifer E. Smith, a Mary Shelley biography
Gwilym Lee: Henry V - William Shakespeare, any of the Chief Inspector Barnaby series - Caroline Graham, a Catherine The Great biography
Joe Mazzello: Jurassic Park - Michael Crichton, With the Old Breed: At Peleliu and Okinawa - Eugene Sledge, Helmet for My Pillow - Robert Leckie, Enslaved By Ducks - Bob Tarte, G.I. Joe Comics, Fire In The Hole - Elmore Leonard
Lucy Boynton - Sense And Sensibility - Jane Austen, Murder on the Orient Express - Agatha Christie, Why Didn’t They Ask Evans - Agatha Christie, The IPCRESS File - Len Deighton, a Marianne Faithfull biography, a biography about Joseph Bologne the Chevalier de Saint-Georges
Or try some of the support cast like Allen Leech, Tom Hollander, Aiden Gillen, etc.
4. Flowers on the Cover (Lily of the Valley)
A Lily of the Valley is a type of flower so pick a book with some sort of flower in the cover art.
5. Listen to some Queen songs
The first of the activity prompts and a fairly easy one to do I think. You can listen to a full album or just get a music video or two up on youtube.
6. Bestseller
Queen holds the record for the best selling album in the UK with their 1981 compilation album Greatest Hits and are one of the world’s best selling musical artists. Read a book which is considered a best seller. This could be a book that appears on anything from an official list of best selling works to a list that your local bookstore creates about popular books of the month, whatever works for you.
7. About A Musician or Band
Pretty self-explanatory. Queen is a band, so read a book that somehow includes a band or musician.
8. Featuring a Pet/Animal (Delilah)
Freddie Mercury wrote this song about one of his cats. Read a book with some sort of animal companion or pet.
9. Cosy Reading Night
The second activity prompt. Have a cosy reading night (or day!), whatever that means to you. Maybe it’s just being curled up in comfy PJs, maybe it’s a nice hot bath and a few candles while you read.
10. Seasonal Read (A Winter’s Tale)
Read a book that fits the vibes of the season you’re in. For southern hemisphere folks like me it’ll be spring, and for northern hemisphere folks it’s autumn.
11. LGBT+ Main Character
Freddie Mercury was gay so in honour of that, read a book with a queer character.
12. Multiple Authors (Under Pressure)
Under Pressure was written with and featured David Bowie. Read a book with multiple authors. It could be an anthology or a collection of essays or just a book that was co-written by two people. You could even count a book translated by someone other than the author if you wanted.
13. HOT SPACE LETS GO!
Free Space!
14. Parent Rec (Father To Son)
Read a book that was recommended or picked out for you by a parent, guardian or parental figure of some sort (heck even just someone older than you lmao).
15. Written by a Freddie, Brian, John or Roger
The four members of Queen are Freddie Mercury, Brian May, John Deacon, and Roger Taylor, so read a book by someone who shares any of their names.
16. Been Putting Off (The Miracle)
Everyone has at least one book they picked up fully intending to read and then never got around to and now you just keep not reading it. Maybe it’s large and intimidating, maybe it’s a genre you used to be much more into, maybe you’re just worried you won’t enjoy it as much as you thought you would. Whatever the case, this is your chance to finally, miraculously, get around to it.
17. Complete A Personal Goal
The third activity prompt. Check this off when you’ve completed some sort of goal you set yourself. It could be a goal related to the readathon like getting a bingo or finishing a particular book or reading a certain number of pages. Or, it could be something else entirely - going to the gym or completing a household chore that needs to be done or getting your sketchbook set up for Inktober.
18. Features Fairies, Ogres, Dragons and/or Queens (My Fairy King/Ogre Battle/Dragon Attack/Killer Queen/etc)
Queen have a lot of songs with fantasy creatures or elements. Read a book that features some sort of mythical creature or royalty (they have songs about kings and princes too so they absolutely count).
19. Favourite Genre (Rock It (Prime Jive))
Do you find yourself mostly drawn to romance books? Or maybe scifi is more your thing? Whatever genre you enjoy most (your prime jive...), this is an excuse to pick up another one!
20. Published or Set in 1970s
Queen first formed as a band in 1970 and released their first album in 1973. So read a book that was publish or is set during the 70s.
21. Guilt-Free Activity
The last of our activity prompts. If you really want to go see a movie but feel bad about taking hours off of reading, you can now do it guilt free! Or, conversely, if you’ve got some chores you should be doing but put them off to read a little longer, that also counts. Whatever sort of activity you feel guilty about doing or not doing, this is a free pass.
22. Black and White Cover (White Queen/March of the Black Queen)
The album Queen II featured a bit of a black/white theme which carried into live performances where Freddie and Brian would paint their nails to match their queens. Read a book with black and white on the cover.
23. Digital (Machines (Back To Humans))
Read an ebook or listen to an audiobook. You could read the whole book digitally or you could switch between an ebook and a physical copy, or follow the physical book as you listen to an audiobook. As long as you read at least some of a book in a digital format, it counts.
24. Set In England
Queen is an English band, so read a book set in England.
25. Translation (Teo Torriatte (Let Us Cling Together)/Las Palabras De Amor (The Words of Love))
Both of these songs feature lyrics sung in other languages. So read a book that was originally written in another language!
