The molds do exist.
They are at Atlantic Standard in Maine. They could be made today but they would have to be converted to injection molded chips.
Records on the Arrowdie's may or may not exist.
The chips were made at Burt Co and shipped to LV for hot stamps.
I have found 2 people that hot stamped chips for Haines. Slim Ewing and Bud Jones.
I also found a man that attended the funeral of Tommy Haines. He lives in Reno and is no relation to our Tommy Haines.
Not sure what happened to Slim's records after he died. Bud Jones has never destroyed any records.
I will be looking at the H mold records on Nov 13. ( Dies and records) They are for sale. Same guy has the Rigdon records ( Hourglass dies, molds and records)
The H mold belongs to a guy in NJ.
