Ok, reply...

Smitty,

Well, that was quite the story abut the convention, and I'm sorry that happened to you. Without knowing anything about it, I won't comment.

About the "121-1/2" chips...

When these chips were first found they were claimed to be from Jeffersonville because they had a rather famous "121 Club", and this was claimed to be an annex in the room above. I'm not sure who made the first claim, but we have since found these to be from Kansas City, Missouri.

My Illegal Price Guide is now 13 years old, and yes we have made MANY corrections since then. Unfortunately, a "price guide" for illegal chips is really almost impossible to do. With the very limited collectors, finding even a few chips will make the prices completely obsolete. Therefore, I have not updated this in some time.

A more up-to-date guide would be the club's ChipGuide which shows the Kansas City attribution:
