The top reads "Ball Room Club", this particular bakelite chip is "2'6" on the other side, there are other denominations, not mine find. I believe he submitted the "new found" chips to the MoGH already.
The middle "Sporting Casinos" is already in the MoGH, follow the link - http://www.themogh.org/cg_chip2.php?id=UKXXSC.
I am not even "nearby" on the Ball Room Club chip, has been working for days in and out - not even a hint or clue. The Sporting Casinos I got an "inkling" sort of but cannot ID for sure.
Not posted here are some new finds - since there is no 2'6 which is my focus of interest, it has been passed on. Watch the daily listings of
the MoGH for some of the chips to show up.
The bottom shows a book by John Ashton, History of Gambling in England (is/was) available in CA University library. Most "WANTED"
I would like buy a personal copy.
