Hi everyone, this may be a strange request but I have seem weirder !

I am a very strong collector of Cuban chips (an addict of Dominican and Cuban chips) and I am writing a book on Cuban Gaming History/Casino chips Catalog. Pub day, if health allows, 2011 LV June meeting !!

I need:

1- Cuban chips- Truth is that is not easy to find too many chips that I do not have, but there are so many chips that nobody will ever complete the collection. I will PAY VERY WELL for any Cuban chip that I do not have or that I want for any reason. Please summit any chip, even if you think I probably have it. I can frequently find a home for it if I do not need it. And please summit any chip you may think it could be from Cuba even if you are not sure.

2- Information on anything related to Casinos, Clubs or any institution that had to do with Cuban gaming and chips that you think may be unique or if you know a source where I can get info, whether a person or a book or site, please let me know. I have been doing research for over 4 years now, in the USA, in Cuba, and in any library or site or book I can get my hands on. But, still every few days I am surprised by new sources of information. Please pass the word, help the catalog be as complete as possible.

LAST- Do not let my research go to waist. If you have any questions regarding Cuban chips, ID them, possible value, or anything related to Cuba and Mafia, do not hesitate to contact you, most likely I can give you an answer and if not, I usually know where to find it. So, do not be shy.

Thanks everybody, any important information will get you a free catalog once published. Any good chip will get you money- Luis
