Re: Hi Steve - Great Post..

..IMO hstory rates No 1 and NO 2 when it comes to the hobby.
No 1, having the chip.
No 2, history of the chip.
I do not clean my chips in anyway shape or form. I welcome the cigarette burns, etc.
If my collection ever comes to the market, buyer can do what ever they want with them.
I do understand why some collectors do clean them.
