Charles,
I have no firm opinion now, but I think of the Club as entailing gambling chips and casino and gambling-related items. Generic home-use poker chips should certainly be allowed at the Club convention and magazine. The ones pictured below are advertising poker chips and are worth $100 each. These have no connection to casinos. They are like the advertising brothel chips. If you allow poker chips (new and old), how can you kick out brothel chips? (Maybe on decency grounds, not an unworthy approach.). Age couldn't be a factor since we collect currently made limited edition casino chips.. ....... ....... I have not been reading the posts that carefully, but one thing I object to is currently made (with no disclose, or even disclosure) "tribute" chips to closed brothels..... ...... ..... Incidentally, I would not collect these current brothel chips, and virtually all brothel chips circulating in flea markets (even those purported to be old) are fantasy chips worth one or two dollars each.
