Re: Richard
In Response To: Re: Richard ()

Thankyou for the compliment! Coming from someone like yourself, with your vast wealth of knowledge on the subject, means a great deal.

And just for the record, when writing this book, several times I mentioned,I never included in my Collection absolutely any Chip that was actually used in the Saratoga Illegals, including all the generics referenced. Since I followed this policy to the utmost level, I could not label PAGE 70 any ways otherwise. I was certain the Chips shown were absolutely used at the Inn in Saratoga, but had no corroboration or provenance that they were ever used in Ohio and those labled Ohio fit all the information I'd gathered and the initials fit perfectly to the Ohio Inn owner, and I'd purchased them from a person living in Cincinnati. It all fit! I am sorry if you feel I have misled someone.

BTW You would be within your parameters of misleading if you had referenced page 16 and have people think that it was the ARROWHED INN not the ARROWHEAD INN. For this, I am
also very sorry.(but so far only one person has ever mentioned it)
