for sale San Francisco illegals

Some of you may remember I offered these chips a couple or three years ago on The Chip Board. I had five colors but the yellows and blues are now gone (except for one of each which are in extremely worn condition) and I now only have three colors left as shown in the scan. These chips were used in the 1950s and are unusual in that they have the address of the club printed on them, 340 Mason Street, which is in downtown San Francisco. Although poker has always been legal in California, it has not been legal in the city of San Francisco since the Barbary Coast days so these can corrrectly be classified as illegals in my opinion. Anyhow I only have five sets of the three chips left (the red is the one I only have five of) and if anyone would like a set they are available for $30 for the three including shipping. I can take (and prefer) PayPal as long as you don't use a credit card but I will also take checks from club members or others who I have dealt with in the past. Drop me an e-mail if you are interested.
