The Divot Story. Did you know that...

the most proficient mass produced chip ever made was the Embossed FAMOUS JOCKEY CHIPS? Hundreds of thousands if not millions of the Jockey chips were produced in the early 1900s.

A close second would have to be the Embossed GOLFER chips featuring a Golfer in Knickers with his niblet. BUT did you know that a few of the Golfer chips have an unusual variation. Some of the GOLFER chips have a Divot flying off to the right but only a very few & the Divot is only found on one side of the chip. As far as I know, all of the Divot chips found are exactly the same so it would make sense that the variation was in the mold.


I have only been able to find these few Divot chips over the years. When you see a Jockey Chip be sure to check both sides for the Divot.
He seems to have a bigger grin on the Divot chip too! vbg

I can't wait to see you guys! rofl
