I originally bought the inlay chips from the same man--I remembered him as being an investigator with the NY State Troopers but my memory aint good. In any event, I got them in the early 80's at his home just north of Albany. HE had thousands of the chips and told me about the raid on the Brooks Club. Among the chips were the hearts & rectangles. I have a few of those now but think I bought them later. I did, however, see these when I was at his house. He had some friends who peddled some of his chips at various eastern open air markets and I bought a few more of the inlays from them. When I finally opened my purse to illegals in the late '80's returned to his home but he no longer lived there. I assume that he may be dead by now. In any event, these chips are from the N.Y. Brooks club. Well done, Robert.
