Thank you for all this info. I have had the BR chips misidentified for a really long time - right club but wrong person. Glad to have it cleared up. I don't think I have any of the WH chips - or if I do I have not scanned them. I also need at least one and perhaps two BR chips.
The info you provided on the Barker Hotel made it clear that some of the "card clubs" were actually a person running a game in someone else establishment and when they moved to a different place they took the chips with them. I remember talking to Jenny of Jenny's Club in Marysville and she told me that when she first started out she used chips from Joe's Club in Sacramento so the chips and the players are all a mobile bunch. Love the history - really admire your research. Keep up the good work.
