Pete, a guy named Bill Watson had them made at Langworthy, Borland probably was in on it as Bill W and Borland was friends. Watson was well known among the collectors but I did not know him.

I wanted very much to believe they were real when Watson walked into my office the 1st time in the middle 90's. He had great stories as he worked at the ranch.

He put me in touch with Hoots wife. She was or maybe still is a big gambler. She knew nothing about the chips but was a real nice lady. Last time I saw Watson was about 3 years ago at the convention.
