~~~ $60,000 a month for ballroom space depending on the hotel's entertainment.

Some cabinetry in collections housed from 5000 to 7000 chips and most of what's known are monogrammed and some of that has been traced to the Caro Collection find when it hit the street in Paris and then eBay.

Way too deep for me to study though, those who do know that organized groups from France not only ran the operations but, the staff were all Frejch as well, except for where there were German-speaking populations, according to the families of the operators.

There are collectors who will pass on a set of any quant if only one piece shy and, they make that fact very clear in their networking.
