About a year ago I got a call from Playboy magazine to rent them a poker chip set to be used as a prop in a photo shoot, so I sent it off to Chicago. it was used in the shoot and returned, but it looked like the pictures wouldn't be accepted for the magazine. Now just today, to my delight and surprise, I received several June 2003 French edition Playboys in the mail. The note accompanying them said that "Hef" rejected the pictures for the American edition, but they were finally used in the French edition (at least they do something right). (It took this long for the French editions to reach my "contributing stylist" Playboy contact in Chicago.) Nice to know we have a very useful hobby.

There are nine pictures in all. Here are some;

Those are my "Lyre" poker chips. I have over 1000 of them in a faro rack.

That's my rack in the lower right of the picture.
