h2] The Riviera (Florida)
Here’s one I don't see on the Chipguide Florida page: The
illegal Riviera that was on one of the Sunny Isles near
Hallandale.
Red chip, 3 light blue inserts, hot-stamped "R" with
an odd hearts-and-squares mold.
The Riviera holds a special place in my memory: it was the
first casino I ever saw! I must have been about 6 years
old and visiting with my grandmother and grandfather, who
took my parents and I from their home in Hollywood to Miami
Beach via A1A. And we passed this creepy boarded-up old
building where the road going down the peninsula was fenced
off with a big chain between posts. My grandparents said
it was a casino that had been owned by gangsters, and it was
now deserted.
The building stood for quite some years (wonder who paid the
property taxes?) but became damaged in various hurricanes,
and by around 1964, I think, it was torn down. Don't
know what's there now as we moved from Florida in 1965.
Around 55 years passed, during which time I forgot the name of the
old casino, but eventually I took an interest in collecting
chips and decided to research it. "Riviera" it
was, same name but presumably not ownership, as another
Riviera Hotel in Miami Beach.
And when this chip came up on eBay, I decided to bid on it – and won!
A "red" chip would today be a $5 gaming piece, but I
don't know how it was played in the old days.

- don't know if this counts as a "harvesting
story" but you are welcome to use it if you
wish.

CRIPPLE CREEK, COLORADO SITS AT THE BASE OF PIKE’S PEAK. IT IS ABOUT 50 MILES FROM COLORADO SPRINGS. I WAS ON A ROAD TRIP WITH MY YOUNGEST SON KEN. NANCY HAD WENT TO HAWAII WITH ONE OF HER GIRLFRIENDS (KARLYE). KARLYE WAS ONE OF THE WELCOMING GIRLS ON MR. ROARK’S FANTASY ISLAND. SO MY SON AND I WENT ON A ROAD TRIP, THIS PART OF THE TRIP; STARTED OUT AT ASPEN WHERE WE STAYED OVER NIGHT. HE WANTED TO TAKE HIS NEW MUSTANG OVER INDEPENDENCE PASS, ONE OF IF NOT THE HIGHEST ROAD PASS IN THE US AND THEN IT SNOWED. (IT WAS IN LATE JUNE) WE ENDED UP IN CRIPPLE CREEK. IN THIS TOWN YOU CAN WALK UP ONE SIDE OF BENNET STREET AND DOWN THE OTHER AND HIT VIRTUALLY EVER CASINO IN 3 BLOCKS OF THE GAMBLING TOWN OF CRIPPLE CREEK.
THIS WAS DONE IN A LITTLE LESS THAN A DAY. I KNOW I HIT THE FOLLOWING CASINOS: BILLY’S, DOUBLE EAGLE, ELK CREEK (ANTIQUE STORE FIND), JP MCGILLS, JOHNNY NOLAN’s, MIDNIGHT ROSE, WILD HORSE SALOON #2, WILDWOOD & WOMACKS. WE STAYED OVER NIGHT AT WOMACKS HOTEL.
I PICKED UP A FEW HANDS IN THE MIDNIGHT ROSE, THE WEATHER GOT CRAZY, COLD WIND AND A HARD RAIN, WHICH STOPPED MY SON FROM TAKING ON PIKE’S PEAK.
I NEVER HAD A BIT OF TROUBLE WITH ANY OF THE CASINOS IN CRIPPLE CREEK, AND AS A MATTER FACT WHILE AT THE WOMACKS, I HAD A CONVERSATION WITH A VERY NICE DEALER AND PIT BOSS. THEY POINTED OUT TO ME THAT WOMACKS WAS THE ONLY CASINO IN TOWN AT THAT TIME THAT HAD $2.50 CHIPS, I BOUGHT 8. I WISH I HAD BOUGHT MORE…REGGIE

I am always trying to put things together that have some semblance of balance. Of course, that will always be in the eye of the beholder. Some of these may attract you the collector a little or a lot, no matter which way it attracts, please know I am always trying to help you out, with items you want at price that is fair. For now, I am going to do them every week, but as an unscheduled surprise feature…Thanks for looking. Reggie
If you have some ideas about compatible pairs please send them in to me. If it is possible and I happen to have the two, they will be put on the docket...reg

I AM A DAILY READER, A DAILY POSTER & SUPPORTER OF THE CHIPBOARD. I HAVE SEEN ALL SORTS OF APPROACHES TO THE ART OF TRADING CHIPS. HOWEVER, THAT BEING SAID; HERE IS MY OBSERVATION ON WHY PEOPLE ARE NOT AND DO NOT DO MUCH TRADING:
• TRADING REQUIRES MORE THAN AN AVERAGE AMOUNT OF INITIATIVE.
• TRADING REQUIRES A LARGE SELECTION OF ITEMS TO MAKE A TRADE, AND THAT MEANS MORE THAN A 100 COMMONS.
• WHEN YOU APPROACH ANOTHER CHIPPER FOR A TRADE, YOU MUST BE KNOWLEDGEABLE OF WHAT HIS INTERESTS ARE. IT WILL DO YOU NO GOOD TO ASK ANOTHER TRADER TO TRADE FOR ITEMS THEY DO NOT EVEN COLLECT.
• REMEMBER THE USPS IS THE ONLY ONE THAT MAKES OUT ON SMALL TIME TRADES SO IT IS ADVISEABLE TO MAKE AT LEAST A 5-6 CHIP TRADE WHEN MAKING A TRADE.
• TRADING POLICIES OF EACH IDIVIDUAL IS OFTEN QUITE DIFFERENT. I HAVE A POLICY FOR TRADING, AND WILL GLADLY SHARE WITH ALL THAT ASKS.
• ROUND ROBINS ARE ANOTHER WAY OF TRADING.
• I HAVE BEEN TRADING REGULARLY FOR TEN YEARS. I HAVE HAD THOUSANDS OF TRADES OVER THESE TEN YEARS.
• CHIP SHOWS ARE ONE OF THE BEST PLACES TO FIND TRADER.
• This is just a few, please help and contribute your ideas…REG
RATHER THAN HAVING MY BETTER SETS CATEGORY, I WILL START HAVING A REGULAR SET OF THE DAY WITH MY OTHER FEATURES WHEN I DISPLAY A “PAGE OF THE DAY”.
I AM REDUCING PRICES ON MOST OF THESE SETS, SOME WILL BE FACE VALUE, SO IF YOU SEE SOMETHING YOU LIKE AND WANT, PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE IN SENDING ME AN EMAIL, PUTTING A SOLD SIGN ON THE CB IS NOT THE WAY TO GUARANTEE YOUR PURCHASE OR TRADE. SEE POD FOR P/H RATES. SEND ME AN EMAIL FOR ORDERS OR QUESTIONS…Reggie

Starting in January 2016, I have listed everything I have (all of my excel inventory +) on the collection library trader/for sale. Of course, many of you did not know that my previous listings were items I had more than one of. Now, everything; even the ones I only have 1 (one) of will be listed. Please know; none of these are from my personal collection. One more important point while searching for chips on my CL site; there are two settings for viewing my chips. One is a simply a long, long list of pictures and descriptions. Two is by Country/City/State/Casino alphabetical. You may request to change this at any time. And when you do I will leave it on that setting for a couple of days, or whatever you request within reason, before I change to help another chipper’s request.
Follow This Collection Library Link To Approximately +/- 4500 Trader Chips >>>: http://www.collectionlibrary.com/Index.asp?EvApp=mls.5117&sPageName=MyTraders
This will cause more work for me, and along with that will be the possibility of more errors, and chances for items to slip through the cracks. So, I apologize in advance for the times I do not clear off a listing after it has been sold. Also, on the other side of coin, there will be times I will find a very nice item that I had forgot to put on the “Collection Library” when I first got it. And now I am listing it just when you started looking for it.
*On the subject of trading, please know: When you spot something on my CL Trader/For Sale list that you really want, I need to get something that I can put into my collection, also; or it will be a cash sale. Because, to take in trade something I will in turn have to sell, (that is already in my collection) requires me to work twice as hard to complete the original transaction.
The total amount of chips listed on this site as traders and for sale are approximately 4500. This of course will fluctuate up and down, however this number should afford most collectors looking for a piece to put in their collection at least an opportunity to see a few chips not often offered.
Thanks for taking your time to read over this post, Reggie
*Please read thoroughly
