Robert, Archie & Kerry,

Thanks for the bit of history concerning these older chips. It has always been in the back of my mind that these chips were really new ones that were made and being pasted off as old. Very interesting stuff.

I have seen the Library at the club website and I am going to check out some things when I have time. Thanks for mentioning it to me. As for my enthusiasm, yes, I really love this! I can remember before I was 21 I started to save up money so that I could go to a casino on my 21st b-day. I was definitely hooked then although not really a collector at that time. I just collected chips so that I'd have money when I returned. Later I found myself attached to these chips.

Anyway, I'm glad to know that I'm not getting on your nerves. I'm looking forward to meeting all of you at conventions and shows in the future.

Thanks again,
Katie
