~~~ involved worn and damaged MOP chips on the tables and (according to what I have read several times) that was they had to be removed from the tables. If accurate, I can see the manufactures loving it... Also, rarely does a drilled MOP pop up which, I would assume is because the manufactures purchased them to be shaved, reshaped and re-engraved which, we have seen inventories in stages of the procedure.

Example of drilled MOP. These by the way, were found by Stan H. who was the person who found the 7,000 Harold's Club hexagon roulettes which were shipped to a woman's social club by Harold's Club via railway. I had sent a shipping label to Howdy back then.
