Picked up some (square in circle) B&R chips a while back.
They turn out to be ordered by...
Rich Purdue
Stockmans Lounge/Hotel
146 Main Street. Halfway, OR
Small order... 200 chips. Not exactly a gambling house, but interesting place.
100 BLUE $1.
75 RED $5.
25 WHITE .50
I called and talked to the manager of the restaurant/lounge/hotel, she knew the name on the order card, an old owner RICH PURDUE,
but she said that was before her time.
I asked her what the "B" could have stood for in the (B&R), she said Rich's wife was named Bonnie. Good enough for me.... lol...
If there are any Oregon Collectors out there, I have the set of three chips available for $24 shipped, please email me directly.
