And, at a bargain price. Everything shown in the below scans were obtained for $30 all in. Here's the story: I was asking every vendor at the sprawling Canton, TX Trade Days if they had any casino related memorabilia, and this one lady responded, "I don't have any chips but I have this box full of casino stuff, I think they are buttons." Gladly, I asked, "can I see them?" and she pulled out this box saying I will take a "quarter of a $100" for the box as I have had it a long time and I am tired of packing and repacking it."
Here's what was in the box:
(The second scan has the set of CHIPCO Pro-Tech chips and a extra large pinback)
And, a brochure from Cal-Neva that provided an interesting history from birth to great fire and the rebuilding into a playground for the discriminating gambles of the day.
Hope this didn't bore anyone, but I was excited to get all the items.
The bonus, the Horseshoe chips ($25 & $2.50) are still cash-able!
