I stayed at Dale’s home maybe 15 years ago. Dale allowed me to go through his collection of crest and seals. At the time I thought I had a great collection. I bought every chip out of his collection that I needed. Must have been 60 to 80 chips (included the $1 and $10 Floridians). I left many chips that were quite valuable but I already had them. That was a mistake!

I also bought a ton of ivories.

Besides chips, Dale and I discussed at length his geometric sculptures. I was a math major in college. I also love woodworking. My garage is filled with power tools. Hearing how Dale created his works of art with a table saw and plywood I found incredibly interesting.

Below is a Dale work of art. The figure is composed of 5 cubes.
