Speaking of San Francisco...

A combination of factors (new IDs, coupled with lots of snow here to give me time to sort my Calif chips) led me to put together a quick scan of the San Francisco chips I have around. Some of these you may have seen, others are new finds. I would consider each an "illegal" since 'Frisco has not had legal games this century. From left to right:

SBC (rev 5.00) Sommerton Bridge Club 1945
Powell Club (rev 25) Gaming Table show this club goes back to 1914, and I would imagine that this mold means this one is mighty old
GB Oscal Gill (part owner) 32 Turk St (right downtown) 1939
JM (rev $50.00-wow, big game!) Jay Miller 1624 Bay St 1939
Top O the Mar--attributed to San Francisco, but I haven't seen definitive proof

I don't collect San Fran myself, so each of these is available for sale/trade. More IDs later. steve
