It was at the Aladdin in a small room. I came around the corner and found my self in a sea of hungry, rabid chip collectors. I could feel the EXCITEMENT. It was in the a and in the excitement in the PEOPLE'S. It was Fantastic. You should have been there. Great feeling. All waiting for the top of the hour , as some one said we're waiting. For what ? Because those are the rules. I wish we had a guide so we, at that I ran out of the room.
I had, previously talked to Mr. Wheeler and he had 10 boxes under his table full of Chip Racks.
I ran to his table, in those days you could go into main room where we had all set up for the show. No Wheeler. I went here and there and found him. I told him how everyone was in that little room but without a guide book. They're asking for it. Can I take boxes and pay you later ? OK was his answer. Great
I ran back to his table and grabbed 2 boxes.
When I came around the door and announced, " Here is the Chip Rack" come and get it. There was hungry people wanting them, money was flying and books were a flying.
I sold ten (10) boxes +- a hell of a lot. Those were the times, my friend !,
