Presumably, we have Len Cipkins to thank for this. Thanks Len!

Getting Chippy

Do you collect casino chips, gaming tokens, slot club cards, room keys, dice, ashtrays, swizzle sticks, or anything that has a casino logo on it? The 11th annual Casino Chip & Gaming Token Collectors Club Convention will be held June 25-28 this year at the Tropicana Hotel and Casino, with approximately 100 vendors and 5,000 collectors expected to attend. On display will be a one-of-a-kind $5 Hacienda Las Vegas chip, which sold for a record $15,100. A one-day membership, which includes convention admission, can be purchased at the door for $5. For more information go to www.ccgtcc.com (note the neat Convention Webcam available at the Web-site).
