I mainly collect $1 chips from all around the world and any chip related to baseball.
2. How many chips, etc. do you have?
I currently have 6,210 different $1 chips in my collection and I have 287 different baseball related chips in my collection. My total collection consists of 7,546 different chips. Also, I have 2,600+ traders to go along with my collection.
3. How long have you been collecting?
I started collecting in the Fall of 1997 and I joined the CC & GTCC in the summer of 1998 while at my first convention.
4. What got you started in collecting?
Back in 1997, I worked for a guy named Jim Smith (some of you may remember him). He asked me to help him scan some chips and I was constantly packing and mailing chips for him. I became interested in the hobby and went on my first chip run from Memphis down to Natchez in the fall of 1997 to collect chips for Jim. From this trip, I became hooked and have been enjoying myself every since.
