A GUEST AUTHOR’s HARVEST STORY

LARRY FLYNT’s LUCKY LADY GARDENA, CA

By: J. Eric Freedner


My story about the new Lucky Lady. I had been following the ups and downs of the Normandie Casino online - open, now closed, but actually still open . . . until news of Larry Flynt's purchase of the casino hit the news. But as you know, a big ruckus erupted between Larry and the City of Gardena which wanted a guarantee of $800,000 tax revenue per month in return for certain "favorable allowances." Mr. Flynt refused to cave in and kept the casino closed . . . for a few days. I recognized this as the classic poker-bluff.

Sure enough, the City caved in, and in a news release on July 19, it was announced that the Lucky Lady might open as soon as Friday, July 20. I read this on July 20 . . . and decided to drive down to Gardena to see for myself, with no great expectation that the casino would indeed be open.

But, surprise! The new Lucky Lady was open, in fact its grand opening, marked only by a workman hurriedly applying a new Lucky Lady decal to the front doors. It must have been hurriedly arranged - no balloons, flowers or that sort of thing. Just some dedicated gamblers playin' away . . . with new chips! Which, when I bought some at the Cage, turned out to have the naked lady on the inlay. Shocking, but fun! I had all of $65 with me at the time, and this went fast for 50¢, $1, and $5 chips. Walked around the tables and asked a dealer what those green chips were - $2 drop chips, she replied. Welllll . . . back to the cage for some of those, which the cashier graciously sold. But then - I spied some red chips in a rack and was told they were $3 drop chips - not currently on the tables. But, I asked the cashier, could I buy some as a collector? She shrugged and said it was all right with her. Next problem: no more cash!

Drove frantically around Gardena looking for a compatible ATM and sure enough, a block from the Hustler, the right bank appeared. So, with a newly-acquired $100 bankroll in my pocket, I raced back to the Lucky Lady and bought more chips, including those $3 ones.

Best chuckle of the night: seeing a patron approach the doors of the Lucky Lady, stop, and stare at the new decals. He did a double-take, as if he was on "Candid Camera." But the doors had a familiar look to them, so in he went. I can only imagine his surprise when he got a handful of naked lady chips for his game!

Anyway, that's one of the few casino grand openings that I ever attended, and pretty much all by accident.

PERSONAL HARVESTING STORIES

Oaklawn Racing & Gaming Hot Springs, AR

By:RICHARD “REGGIE” GUMMER

While living in Tennessee, I planned a trip to Tunica, with a side trip to Arkansas. The target was the Oaklawn Racing & Gaming. The previous visit there did not allow enough time for this Old Timer to overcome their obstacles.
It seems, no chips were allowed out of the cage, period. And it was reported to me by the pit boss of their 6 tables of Blackjack, that he could only allow 5 $1 chips off of the tables for souvenirs. This information was gathered on my previous trip.
So, I was prepared to spend some time and work my harvesting techniques. My first attempt was to play a few hands of Blackjack and buy extra $1 chips from the dealer “in order to tip appropriately”. Woudn’t you know I started winning, and continued winning for several hours. During this “rush” I continued to buy 5 or 10 one dollar chips and pocketing after several minutes 4-7 chips. I was prepared, I wore my Cargo Pants, and after about 4 hours I left, after cashing out about $300 dollars of winnings. And after I got back to my car I counted out 75 +/- one dollar chips. I had loaded up each of my four front pockets with 15-25 chips. http://www.themogh.org/cg_chip2.php?id=ARHSOA (CG LINK)
Also, I harvested about 10 snappers and couple $5 chips between the tables and the cashier.
What a haul, that was a very successful trip…Reggie

A PAIR TO DRAW TO

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

POSTAGE & HANDLING (PLEASE READ)

THE POSTAGE HAS WENT UP, THIS PAST YEAR. (2017) I HAVE NOT RAISED MY POSTAGE COSTS EVER SO. WHAT THIS MEANS TO YOU, 1-2 CHIPS CAN BE MAILED FOR $1, 3-4 CHPS CAN BE MAILED FOR $2. THE REST OF MY POSTAGE RATES REMAIN THE SAME OR MAY REQUIRE A SLIGHT INCREASE.
PLEASE READ THE ORDERING INSTRUCTIONS TO KEEP INFORMED OF THESE POSTAGE CHARGES. AS FOR THE HANDLING, THE LABOR PART IS NO CHARGE. BUT, FROM TIME TO TIME I HAVE TO BUY THE CORRUGATED PAPER FOR SHIPPING, RARELY DO I HAVE TO BUY THE BUBBLE MAILERS, BECAUSE I RE-USE THE ONES I GET WHILE TRADING AND BUYING FROM OTHER COLLECTOR/DEALERS. I BUY MY ENVELOPES WHEN THEY ARE ON SALE.
IF ANY ONE HAS ANY MONEY SAVING TIPS, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME, AND PASS THEM ON.
IF YOUR ENVELOPE OR PACKAGE COMES TO YOU TATTERED, FRAYED OR OPENED, PLEASE LMK ABOUT THIS. IF POSSIBLE I WOULD LIKE TO SEE A SCAN/IMAGE OF IT. IT WILL HELP ME TO MAKE ANY ADJUSTMENTS TO MY SHIPPING FORMAT. SINCERELY
REGGIE

*Please note, if your post office has become narrow minded about the use of corrugated paper inside envelopes and has started charging postage due for the receipt of one or two chips this way. Please LMK.

POST CARDS FROM NEVADA

I HAVE BEEN COLLECTING POST CARDS FOR SEVERAL YEARS, AND HAVE SOME PRETTY COOL ONES. THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A NICE THING TO DO; SHARING THEM. NOT QUITE READY TO START SELLING THEM. ( THERE ARE VERY FEW THAT I HAVE DUPLICATES THEY ARE FOR SALE AND WILL HAVE A PRICE ALONG WITH THEIR TITLES). THAT BEING SAID; SHOULD YOU JUST HAVE TO HAVE ONE OF THESE BEAUTIES THAT IS NOT PRICED, FEEL FREE TO MAKE ME AN HONEST OFFER.…REGGIE

SET OF THE DAY

MANY YEARS AGO I STARTED MY POSTING, BY POSTING “A SET OF THE DAY” I THINK I HAD ABOUT 300-400 SETS ALL TOGETHER. THAT WAS A LOT OF FUN BACK THEN. AND WHEN I STARTED DOING “A PAGE A DAY” I INCLUDED BETTER SETS AS A CATEGORY.
BUT NOW; 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
