Beautiful piece John....
In Response To: Vintage Lyon... ()

You have some amazing stuff.
You know....when I was talking to the dealer about collecting chips he showed me 2 on his employee keychain. He took one off to show me....and asked if I wanted it? I said yes....I will tip you well. He said he wasn’t allowed to take the tip...but I could have it. You could see on his face he didn’t really want to give it up...but kissed it and pushed it across the table to me. Of course...I asked over and over ...are you sure....he had my collectors card already and said he just wanted me to send him a chip from another country and call it even. I took it upstairs to my room and rummaged through a couple of trader chips I brought with me...the only one I had was from Spain so I took it back down to him.

When we exchange addresses...I will probably send him quite a few foreign chips. I think he will eventually become a club member. He is from Santiago, Chile....but works in a French casino. Super nice guy.
It seemed that all the employees were given these chips for their key chains. There a slot attendant I am supposed to meet up with tonight.
Lastly....I want to say...thank you for sharing your vast collection and knowledge with the rest of us....your experience/wisdom helps more of us than you know.

My trade....
