BACK AROUND 1989 0R SO ... I MET A GENTLEMAN WHO OPENED THIS SHORT LIVED RESORT CASINO ON THE SHORE OF LAKE TAHOE, NEVADA .... OPENED 1965 - CLOSED 1966 ... HE HAD SOME WATER DAMAGED CHIPS FROM THIS CASINO. MY EARS WENT UP AND I SAID DID THE HOTEL HAVE A FLOOD OR SOMETHING? .... NO ... HE SAID, THESE CHIPS WERE CANCELLED BY DRILLING AND THEN DUMPED OFF THE DOCK INTO THE LAKE BY SECURITY. MANY YEAR'S LATER HE HAD A FRIEND WHO WAS A DIVER LOOK FOR THEM ... WELL HIS DIVER FOUND THEM IN ABOUTY 3O FEET OF WATER ... I BOUGHT A BIG JAR OF THESE CHIPS STILL IN THE WATER SEALED JAR. I SAID WHY DID'NT YOU DRY THEM OUT ETC.? ... HE STATED THAT THEY WOULD WARP SEVERLY. ANYWAY HERE IS ONE OF THE SAMPLE CHIPS I OBTAINED ... I STILL HAVE THE JAR OF CHIPS ... THEY WERE ON DISPLAY FOR YEAR'S AT THE HISTORIC GAMBLING MUSEUM AT THE TROPICANA LAS VEGAS. HERE ARE SOME OF THE PHOTOS FROM THE MUSEUM EXHIBITS ... THANKS FOR LOOKING ... RICH
