I spent last week in Idaho, primarily up in the mountains. I looked for chips, expecting to find some illegals, but found none. In fact, I was told in Boise that people are constantly asking for casino memorabilia. I did manage to get some free slot play tokens (aluminum, plastic and wood) and some ashtrays. I know very little about them, and would appreciate any information anyone may have about age, scarcity and value.
I will include scans of my finds in the next several posts (for some reason, the site won't accept my scans of the wood and plastic tokens). If anyone is interested in any or all of them, I will consider offers.
