Re: Mold shown at this website .....

Thanks Jim.

It was actually Eisenstadt's website that got me interested in the mold some years ago. I have a blank C-Suits mold chip like the one Robert had posted there. If you look very closely, it has two very faint notches.

Below if a picture of mine, and you can see faint notches at 10 and 2 o'clock. Have you or anyone else ever seen a chip notched in this fashion? I'm thinking that if we can find chips on another mold notched in this fashion, we might be able to guess who the actual distributor for these chips was.

Eisenstadt attributes the chips to "Club Room Equipment Co" but I think that might not be the full name, as it is just too generic, and that company has never been mentioned anywhere else. There was a "White's Club Room Equipment Co" in Ohio, but I don't think these are their chips. I asked David Spragg about it, while he did have a mold cup for the mold, he knew nothing about it's use or history. It seems to predate Jim Blanchard's time at Burt/ASM.

I think the original owner and distributor may have been in California, because that is where the few attributed chips have come from.
