New member here just picked up 1000 chip Paulson flags set (20 Viewers)

[kush]

As the title states I’m a new member here I’ve been collecting poker chips on and off since 1999. My cash set is a Vineyards casino set. My tournament set is a Chipco set, and I just picked up an unplayed 1000 piece Paulson flag Set. Does anybody have any info on this vintage fantasy set?

Welcome to PCF. Ben collects flags. Not sure how big his set is nowadays.

Please @kush post some pics so I can be done.

What insight do you need? This was a fantasy chip set made by Paulson and sold to the public back in the day.

What insight do you need?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Very little data on this fantasy set. How many produced? Years of production? Etc.

Chipco Suits set. Nice!

Sorry, inside joke.

Doubt you will be able to identify production numbers, it is not typical for Paulson to have publicly released that information for a fantasy set. I have no idea on years of production other than pre-2015 for sure. When they started producing them, I have no idea.

Don't do it! Turn back now! Learn from my mistakes! You don't want to be the nosey academic!

Boner is gone, was definitely thinking in the wrong direction. Definitely a cool unique set, though.

Have no info to add but I'm glad you posted these. I got one of these in a random batch I got a few weeks ago and had no idea what it was.

That wasn’t cream my friend.

I wish I had some kind of insight on this set… I just love the fantasy lines and the yellow $5 in this one is that bright crazy yellow they use in many fantasy line ups.

I do know a few years ago in a deeper search, there was a set with a generous # of $5s (like 600) it was on an online auction site, but not a big one like eBay…

I have built what I have a chip at a time over the years and buying sample sets…. I thought it was pretty impressive, but not an opportunity like this set above… wow impressive!

IMO one of those chips that Paulson probably wishes they never made. Needless to say when we designed the dealer button that “flag” was left out.

Same! These are cool though!

It's a strange choice when the rest of them are flags of the world. But growing up as a fan of the dukes of hazzard, I would have loved it.
Anyway, you've got a cool set there, @kush - we don't see many of them these days.
