General E and C mold brainstorming ideas (1 Viewer)

[detroitdad]

Back in the day I had a hot stamped E and C mold tourney set. I used it a few times and sold it. It has been one of my biggest regrets.

I don't have any themes or ideas for a custom set on the E and C. I was planning a bourbon themed set on the B mold. That won't work here. Not interested in a circus theme set.

Any suggestions?

@p5woody any thoughts? up for any design work?

Anyone feel free to spit out some ideas that I could use for the E and C mold.

I might just gamble and see if the hot stamps work and hope that there will be a second run.


"IF" I do this I'll have to sell one of my BCC sets. Just no choice in the matter. I don't have the loot for a 5th (2nd CPC) set. The PCNY's are out of the question. It would have to either be the BCC Riverboat or the BCC sun mold Fun Nites (and I'm really expecting to like them)

Damn!!!


so lets spitball some ideas. Maybe this will spark some other members that are interested in the E and C mold as well.

Thanks in advance.

Not posting anything for sale yet. If I do, it will be for what I paid for them.

Some themes I had thought about prior to the E and C mold coming back were both for the b mold chips. Anyway to transition them into the E and C mold?

Bourbon
Bill's Brewery (obviously b mold)

 

[Rhodeman77]

Middle Eastern theme. Taj Mahal style tower.

A magic lamp with the denom in the smoke

Anything from Arabian Nights books.

 

[Ronoh]

Ivory Palace obviously

Bill, I think I have your old set. I'm not kidding. It is in Saudi with me. I bought it from iblonger in PA. If you are interested in getting it back for pennies on the dollar...

 

[detroitdad]

Google isn't being helpful either lol. Guess I need a win tonight in my league tourney.

@Quicksilver-75 , any thoughts/suggestions?

Two elephants standing on their hind legs towards the center of the chip with the tusks prominent. Well, that's all I got lol

 

[Ghoti]

Jester's Palace. No idea for the design, though.

That was it lol.

I don't even remember what I paid for it. That was a long time ago

PM me a price. Maybe I won't have to sell any sets

Not a bad idea. Could still keep it classy. PM coming (this is of course if I don't buy my old set back from @slisk250 ) lol

 

[detroitdad]

Thanks @David O but No Thanks

 

[Ronoh]

Didn't someone say something somewhere sometime about Ivory Palace? I really like that idea, should probably give it a second look

 

[jbutler]

Easy:

Prince Akeem's Poker Palace

 

[David O]

Thanks @David O but No Thanks

Hey your grandson would love them! LOL

 

[bentax1978]

Prince Akeem's Poker Palace

Plaque art is already done.

Or maybe based off of this--- Need to watch if you never have seen it. Old Classic!

BCC sun mold Fun Nites (and I'm really expecting to like them)

See, that's how the BCC fun nites keep getting moved around. They are great chips, but something just comes up and they narrowly miss the cut. They're like the last man cut on a NFL roster.

That was the case with me, at least. If you don't get your old set back, I think you have the answer.

Pending the price with Mikes hot stamped set I might not have to sell anything. Worse case scenario I have the fun nites

I'm hoping not to sell anything. Absolutely know reason for me to keep two tourney sets though.

 

[Toby]

I'd go with an Indian palace or something from Indian mythology prolly

 

[detroitdad]

I now own an E and C hot stamped mold set. Thanks Mike.

 

[upNdown]

It would be nice to reunite that set. I need to get my hands on the BCC's first, but if I love them, you might have a quick buyer, should you choose to sell yours.
I'm just wary of the BCC's. That flame mold looks too much like RHC to me. I'll find out soon enough.

Something involving a white elephant

Merrick Hotel or Casino

Now that Bill has his chips back he should change the title to "General E&C Brainstorming Thread"

Now my issue, and @jbutler can back me up on this, is that as an Auburn Alumn I am extremely hesitant to spend money on anything elephant related. My efforts will most definitely be focused the the crown aspect of the mold.

 

[Quicksilver-75]

How about "the elephant in the room"?


You know, erectile difficulty...

Saw the poster at the doctors and couldn't resist.

I'll keep you in mind if I sell them.
