ANTIQUE CHIPSCards

PLAYING CARDS. Some of my earliest acquisitions were chips with card suit designs. Most are rather common but some are scarce. Samples below carroy the SEYMOUR code.  One of the oldest of this category or chips--probably late 1890's: (PC-BN)  Another sample: PC-EH  A few of the Playing Card chips have interesting graphic designs: (PC-MH)   Some are colorful: (PC-GP)
An example of an embossed chip (PC-JF)  Another iinteresting design (PC-KF) This last sample, PC-RN is a copy of F. Hegger's 1887 "No Monkeying" painting. There are many different chips with this design:  For a scan of the oil see http://www.georgeglazer.com/prints/genre/pokerdogs.html
