This past weekend I visted and called several chipster, all of whom I'd like to thank for various discussions, and assistance rendered.

Estelle and Scott Hartman

Janice O'neal

Richard Allard

Additionally, if anyone is interested I spotted an ashtray (designated as ALA-20 in Art Anderson's "Casinos and their Ashtrays" (page 9)) and did not buy it (@ $59.00). If anyone in the Southern California area is interested, (Ventura) I can tell you of the shop, and locatiuon within the shop. After I got Janice's telephone number from Richard, I talked with her regarding the plaster figurene ashtray holder. Aside from the one in Art's collection, this is a second sighting. Too much money for me, but may be of interest to others.
