GREAT convention. I must say I had a great time again this year. I met some of the new younger people collecting chips and I believe chip collecting for fun is very alive and well. The people old and new is what makes the hobby an ACE (Absolute Cool Experience) more about the GREAT people in another post. After over 35 years of collecting chips I found chips that are exciting to me. I think every collector has a niche for what they like. Finding chips in your niche is a little rush of ecstasy. Yes, I still feel excited to find something I do not have. The DieCuts with the holes and black strings are from a USPC (UNITED STATES PLAYING CARD CO. sample book. My niche is Lake Tahoe, Crest & Seal and DieCuts. Here is a few chips from this year’s convention. Still having fun Steve.
