"What would you like me to print on the arrow dice mold?"
Won't happen!
The arodie mold was worn out and returned to the owner, either Tommy Haines or the Fremont Hotel. It was not clear who the actual owner was in the Burt records at the time. I have the date somewhere.
Aha, found it. this is from an article I wrote for the Club mag a few issues ago.
"The last entry in the Burt records concerning the arrowdie mold (no date on the entry) indicates the mold is NG and returned to owner. NG meaning worn out. This would have been after the 1967 delivery of arrowdies to the Fremont. Although Tommy Haines did not start out with our mystery mold, it looks like he wound up with the actual unusable mold, or did he? Is it possible the unusable mold was returned to FJ Mooney at the Fremont?"
We will not see new repros on the Nevada mold.
Jim Blanchard now owns the mold. He is above reproach, IMO.
