First time I saw this, and it's pretty cool to see - I suspect some of you haven't seen this before, either.

One of my favorites. Of note,

this plaque was made about 1990 by Atlantic Molding, Maine, a chip manufacturer

I remember seeing a set of these sold on eBay last year. (or the year before.) Neat!

I remember seeing some actual in-process chips bivey had in his album... the first pic is the "clay" formula.

love it... they look like playdoh before they are pressed. Looks so odd but so awesome

I remember there was a thread dedicated to this over on CT. It's so cool to see the process. Thanks CPC for keeping the dream alive!
