Collector Books - sources? recommendations?

Curious if anyone knows a good source for a picking up a copy of "the chip rack, 10th edition?

Also I am curious if there is a recommendation as to what is the "bible" of chip collecting? I am looking for something that lists values of a broad range of chips as the chip rack is strictly for Nevada chips as I understand it! Anyhoo I am a novice in the collection world and just trying to get my hands around it a bit more so any recommendations would be helpful and if you have good sources that would be great too!!!

Re: Collector Books - sources? recommendations?

The Official US Casino Chip Price Guide (3rd ed) by Campiglia and Wells is a good general book and the most recent publication available. You can get from ebay.

I recommend you read the "Newbie Tip of the Day" thread (by Doug Smith but posted on this board by Jim Follis), especially the one about focussing your collection on a specific area. Thise threads also contain links to various websites and lists of books.

I can't recommend enough limiting your collecting to something specific. There is just too much out there. I limit my collecting to $1 Las Vegas and Las Vegas poker rooms. Not super expensive (although I have paid well over $200 for a few individual $1 chips), not too big and not too small(about 500 individual chips so far).

Good luck.
