If you are going to use a graphic from a Nevada Casino, go all the way. Have it done in the material in which the original was made ---CLAY.
Here are two examples done right. Two chips that were originally plain molds were recreated as plain molds. These chips were done right (although I believe Barry could have had Blanchard use a larger size inlay).
To take a graphic off of a clay inlay and have it recreated as a "silk screen" on a ceramic disk, in my opinion, loses something.
Can anyone seriously say that if David and Barry's designs were done on ceramic they would be as good?
Of course I do collect such chips!
