-TLARGI- 1953? This IS a wierd chip! I have seen it listed as The Los Angeles Rubber Group Inc and... whoops... by gosh it IS rubber! Strange with the Skull & Crossbones on the obverse & triange with a "T" inside on the reverse surrounded by the letters A C D F G I K L M P R S V W ... SOME KIND OF CODE? The Los Angeles Rubber Company Inc is still in business today and it GOOGLES but I don't think they even know that the chip exists...or at least they will not return my emails. It was a great chip weekend but Monday means back to work and start the new year out right. Keep the PMA
