I've only received one issue. I can only guess the number of hours/days that Doug Saito spent putting it together. My Chip Chat #19 was divided into two parts: a sale catologue and an auction catalogue. Both sections had one thing in common: each chip offered was described in depth as to history, how it was acquired, known quantities, where used, how verified, etc. Many times historical photos were included.

Each issue becomes a valuable reference source for any collector of Nevada chips.

Doug charges $3 per issue. I think there are 6 issues per year. Doug's phone number is (619) 296-3502.

I'm pretty sure that most of the 'heavyweights' in the hobby subscribe.

Jim Perlowski, a close friend of Doug, would be able to provide alot more information on ChipChat than I.
