for sale A brass core Mother Tucker's chip

Here is a brown Mother Tucker's that someone here might like. Made by Reliable for a New Jersey nightclub in New Jersey about 40 years ago. The chips are the size of Harrahs baccarat chips (about 43 mm). Yours for $25. I pay postage.

Also included below is information on how the chips came to be and the resistance that some New Jersey residents put up when they saw the proposed wording of the name of the place.

You can see all the chip colors as well as an alternate design that included the wording Home of Fabian who seems to have some relation to the Forte' family that owned Mother Tucker's. Entertainer Fabian's last name is Forte.

I've never seen one, but The Chip Guide entry mentions and pictures some reproduction brass core chips that have a little different design than the originals. For some reason, they call the color of this chip Dark Red but it is definitely brown.
