Old school leaded THC Las Vegas tournament set with an awesome history.
I was able to grab Larry's set of VW's to add to mine, making it the only playable set of these that we are aware of. The set I'm offering will make the second playable set. This is truly a rare chance to own a real piece of Vegas and poker history.
"At Bob Stupak's Vegas World, these chips were used by Puggy Pearson, Amarillo Slim, Doyle Brunson, Stu Ungar, Johnny
Chan, Johnny Moss, Gabe Kaplan, and Bob Stupak among others."
dolomite128 acquired the first set to show up on CT in 2011. ledavatar sold the largest set in 2015, at which point there were only three playable sets known, his and two much smaller sets.
From dolo in 2011: "They're solids, no edge spots, Vegas history and played by the legends
of all‐time...you guys and gals know my history and I'll likely sell them
at some point...these are some of the coolest outside of Binions
World Series of Poker chips surfacing in a playable set that I could
hope for...maybe a set of Amarillo Slim's Superbowl of Poker chips."
If you buy this set, you should treasure them and the memories they evoke every time you put them in play. They're a little bit magical, IMO...

Should make a nice single table set
