Mrs H. L. Andrews (HLA) Large Crown TRK Chips!

Today we quickly talk about some large crown chips that I acquired about a year ago or so that were ordered for Mrs H. L. Andrews in 1959. These are TR King Large Crown chips that have HLA stamped onto them (both sides). "T. R. King sold 700 of these large crown chips in five colors to Mrs. H. L. Andrews, 4576 Calle Redondo, Phoenix, Arizona, in 1959." (ChipGuide) Being that these are Large Crown chips makes them more interesting to me because when most people think about TRK many think of the Small Crown chips. I immediately would too, but the Large Crown mold is very underrated as I've said many times before. It gives me a more "vintage" feel/vibe. It feels more classy to me. Although I don't think I've ever felt a leaded Large Crown chip, nor do I know if TRK ever made them, the Large Crowns are awesome, amazing, wonderful whatever words can describe them. Especially when they are in great shape like these chips are. One day I'd love to be able to find the rest of the chips to have the full set all together once again like it was in the late 50s and early 60s. Hope you enjoy!
