The Mott Street Poker Club

The Mott Street Poker Club is a rare gambling book, from 1888. It is the story of a poker club in New York's Chinatown, on Mott Street. Chinese people, or Asian people in general, have a reputation for being passionate gamblers. This has been the reputation for quite some time and often Asian people are the subject of mockery and ridicule, due to this fact. The Mott Street Poker Club is an example of late 19th century humor with racial overtones.
