H. C. Edwards & Co chips (1 Viewer)

Hi, I just joined here. I recently obtained a few boxes of these poker chips (pictures included). The box is marked H.C. Edwards & Co - New York. I was curious if anyone could help me learn about these chips. I’m wond about the “TM” on the backside. Would anyone know if these are just monogrammed or does this TM stand for something? Curious to learn anything about them, they look old. Thank you so much!

Vintage H-mold chips, a lot of these are 70 years old or more. "TM" is likely a monogram for whoever bought it, but illegal card rooms were also known to have gotten initialed hot stamp chips.
