In Response To: PLAYBOY TRAINING CHIP SET ()

According to Tom Stroh’s excellent specialty reference catalog work;
“Cheques, Chips, and Tokens of thePlayboy Casinos” 3rd Edition;

“When the Bahamas casino opened in 1978, bunny dealers were transferred
from London. Later, bunnies from the Bahamas were also sent to London
for training. With planning in the works for the Atlantic City casino, which
was supposed to open in 1980, the training of dealers for the Bahamas
continued in London until training for both casinos could be combined.”

“Playboy wanted to do the training in their own facilities, therefore, the
Atlantic City Playboy Dealer Training School was established. The first
Class graduated in the Spring of 1981, after which dealers for both the
Atlantic City and Bahamas casinos were trained in Atlantic City.”

The Atlantic City and Bahamas Training School chips are Bud Jones Co.
metal insert or hot stamped chips, all with no denomination. The size and
color scheme are the same as the table cheques used in their respective
casino. These chips were short-lived and only used from the Spring of 1981
until the Spring of 1983.”
