Looks like a red dude on a red bike to me.

Antique cast iron motorcycle toy.

And some of you thought chips got kind of pricey!

I've taken the liberty of posting your pic on thechipboard, asking for any insight into the origin of the chip.

Here is the link: http://www.thechipboard.com/cgi-bin/...pl?read=552001

I will relay a response, but feel free to watch.

Thanks jim.
I saw in 1 post that there were other denoms.
This is incorrect.
He only has the $5 chips but he does have a nice quantity.
I have been trying to buy them off him but don't want to offer more than they are worth.
I wish I had a scanner that works because if you all could see the colors on these properly I think you would all fall in love with them.
For some reason just because "I" want them he doesn't want to sell them. lol
I would like to find these somewhere else and see what the other denoms look like.
I would still have no problem mixing and matching these with other paulsons to make a nice cash game set.

Oh
one other question.
Wouldn't the emperor casino be in korean or chinese if they were from the casino?

Well....

According to Gene Trimble, he advises that the entire rack went undelivered and was bought by Mike Spinneti. I'll likely see Mike this Friday, so I will ask him and post back. I've looked at Mike's site and a search does not reveal "emperor".

I've also asked Gene if he has a scan of a set (all denoms). Stand-By....

Why do you think I own faux clays instead of large sets of paulsons.
For me to buy most things that I don't already have motorcycle memorabilia wise is $100 and up a pop with $100 being on the cheap end. lol

Nice chips, nice bike stuff...what more could a person ask for?
Hope the deal works out for you, even with a blurry scan, that chip looks nice.
