Thanks Mental Nomad (1 Viewer)

[DrStrange]

I would like to thank Mental Nomad for finding a great deal on some 75 year old chips and remembering that I have been gathering up this type of chips. He found 237 Ships Wheel chips from the US Playing Card Company in a vintage wooden case for $20 on a local Craigslist - drove over and picked them up - and shipped them to me. The chips were likely made between 1910 and 1940.

I have pictures but can't find my cable. So, I'll post the only picture I have of these types of chips rather than further delaying my thanks. The authentic chips are on the right - the left are ceramic reproductions.

I call inadequate pr0n!

Fortunately, I have secret footage of the chip inspector, pre-shipment:

That's Gaius, alerting on the cheap plastic chips that the prior owner was using as fillers at the bottoms of the racks. He does not approve.

Also, to be fair, DrStrange reimbursed me more than the cost of chips and shipping and gas and the calzone I ate on the way back from the purchase, so he's the one that went above and beyond!

Thank you, @DrStrange.

Cheese. Delicious, delicious cheese. (I don't eat mammals.)
