Located sandwiched in between the "Nevada Club" and the "State Club" on H Street. It became the "New Eldora Club" around 1953 (see "Became"). Gambling was active there until the mid-1960s, when Modesto passed an ordinance making card rooms illegal.

The Gaming Table (5th Ed.) indicates that these chips were shipped to Walter Barboura and Jesse Hall, or that the club was owned by them. It list dates of 1946 to 1950, which may reflect dates that the chips were shipped.
