Though I do not know of any chips; Herbert Swope, newspaper columnist, along with a gentleman known as Junior, told me the chips were Mother-of-Pearl without me mention MOP... Flagler Museum had displayed a wheel with clay composition die-cut letter B as being the chips and the one or two people who have actual furnishings from the club have never mentioned chips... Considering the early days of the club and Bradley's wealth, I believe MOP was used and, though never mentioned by anyone I know of, I would think a "BC" or possibly "E.R." monogram could have been his choice.
