~~~ that in my opinion is one of the few London clubs chips which depicts a little life on the inlay and still seems to be a favorite with newer collectors who venture out to find off shore chips.
Though I've had a few examples in the past, the one most enjoyable experience I've had in obtaining duplicates of this issue was at Renninger's Antiques Fair in Mt-Dora, FL. Most of the management and staff on the grounds knew what I was looking for and would alert me if they happend to notice chips at a vendor's table, but one day the trash collector driver (a small golf cart rig) drove up along side me as I was climbing the hill (and almost at the top) shouted out "There's a couple casino chips down the hill; they're blue and 'look kind of Florida [Palm Beach],' but they're from England." Of course I knew exactly what he was referring to... (Yes. I found them)...
