I have these chips for sale on consignment only, so the prices below (which include shipping) are not negotiable.
The chips came from Fred Beck's grand-daughter. Only 8 complete sets found (the block lettered orange being the short one) plus a few extras of the other 5. I had the entire find for sale including two sets (minus the tough orange) which a friend is selling for me. Fred Beck was Jessie Beck's father but these chips are totally un-connected with the rack of Jessie Beck's chips that hit the market recently.
These were used by Fred when he ran the Keno and Poker Room in Harold's Club as a concession in the 1940's. A copy of the T.R. King order card is shown below. Although a couple of $25 chips have been previously recorded, there were none in this remaining group. The card shows the chips delivered to the Harold's Club address.
I only have 3 full sets remaining plus a few extras of all those except the block orange. Please note though that many of the chips are in poor condition - first come first served. Prices are based on combination of numbers available and chips previously known to exist.
5c white - photo is typical of the condition - small amount of wear and slight marking all over. Price $125 each shipped.
25c red - very slight used with most hot stamp remaining and tiny edge nicks. Price $100 each shipped.
$1 blue - the nicest of the group - almost uncirculated. Price $50 each shipped.
$5 orange cursive - only slight use but all with some small faint burn marks. Price $75 each shipped.
$5 orange block - all were worn and with burn marks. The one scanned is the WORST of the 3 available. Price $150 each shipped.
$5 purple - almost uncirculated. Price $50 each shipped.
While still available I can offer the full set of 6 for $500 shipped.
Email me if you are interested in any of these. Prices include shipping.
