Dunes owners unite ............... (3 Viewers)

[DrunkleWade]

I'm waiting on some samples from @Apache to arrive in the mail. Hopefully 3 weeks or so. Tossing up between Dunes, Majestics or Taj Mahals.

I was such a noob back in August; thinking china clays were like the real thing. I'll never make it into the club proper but I do have a 'associate' member question.

I'm second guessing the spot color on my CPC Dunes homage set $1. Do the Dunes Owners Club collective think it's closer to CPC Chocolate or Maroon?

if you are asking the spot color on the original dollar, paulson chocolate

 

[DrunkleWade]

Uh-huh, but is Paulson Chocolate closer to CPC Chocolate or CPC Maroon? In some photos, it looks darker than others but photos can't be trusted due to lighting etc.

 

[LeGold]

Chocolate is closest.

Thanks @LeGold, you’ve put my mind at ease.

A very rare view of a Dunes chip in its natural habitat:

No not edge conditioned. Just well taken care of over the years and now I’ll get them on the felt! (Put them thru the ultrasonic for only a minute and lightly oiled them as well).
