Chips: 2,456 | | | Re: Shady Rest Casino...ID As I was reading this, 80+ vintage Large Key and T-mold chips came up the driveway via UPS. When I get done playing with them, consider me on the case. It will be a Google day. |

Chips: 22 | | | Re: Shady Rest Casino...ID Area code 310 is definitely Hollywood. Have you called the number? Looks like an ASM Roman, hard to tell the age.
And yes, where do you find these obscure chips? |

I found these at the swap meet near Palmdale, CA, on Hwy 14 (Pear Blossum Highway) on the way from LA to Vegas, last year.
They are in the small greek key mold.

I don't know Jim, it sounds to me like what I think you think it is. |

Of course I couldn't begin to guess what kind exactly.. |
