..I get to be the bad guy here.
Bills place per Fuller:
1934-40's.
Bills place per TCR:
1934-40's.
No known chips in TCR except the $5 and $25 arodie BP's.
I question the attributation.

Arodie mold commissioned by:
Reno Game Supply
822 S. Virginia Ave
Reno, NV
1951 to 1954 (as best we can tell from phone book and Polk cris-cross listings)
From my article on the Arodie mold:

First inlayed arodies was 1953. Sands arodies February 1953, actual Burt CO record card is scanned, in the article. Could very well have been hot stamped arodies anytime between 1951-53.
