Definitely interested in 3-4 of these once artwork is nailed down.
 
Might just be because I'm Canadian but yeah I just think 'Oh!' Not Ohio lol
 
Hope you enjoy your Horseshoe Oh! chips then. ;)
 
Wait, should we go with Shoe Whore, DOH! (Dave, still laughing from that post)
 
Hi there,

Here is an idea I had about this project... A horseshoe shapped dealer token...

If nobody can have the rights to use the logo & casino name, it could be a good solution...

Price of this dealer is 15,90€ ($17.75) + 7€ ($7.8) worldwide shipping.

Or a wooden dealer button like the ones I've just done for @72o and the Knollwoods project ;)

You can see pictures of other dealer buttons to have an idea of the final result here : http://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/last-projects-links-pr0ns.8972/
 
Anyone else just see this?

Well, you do know how this all came to be right? Back when the snake oil salesmen were trying to sell the Ohio voters on legalizing casinos they had town hall meetings. Just like Springfield Monorail spokesman Lyle Lanley the whole town, including the local Homer, broke into song and marched down the steps of City Hall. It went something like this:
Lyle Lanley: Throw up your hands and raise your voice!
All: Cleveland Casino!
Lyle Lanley: What's it called?
All: Cleveland Casino!
Lyle Lanley: Once again...
All: Cleveland Casino!
Marge: But Main Street's still all cracked and broken!
Bart: Sorry, Mom, the mob has spoken.
All: Cleveland Casino!
Cleveland Casino!
Cleveland Casino!
Cleveland Casino!
Homer: Clevelan... D'oh!

I really liked the yellow one, actually. Very different than I would have chosen/created on my own. I'd be in for at least one of all three: black, white and yellow background.
 
I am in but will wait to see the purchase thread and final artwork. Who is going to collect $$$ ?
 
Prefer the 2 black edge white center options with different patterns. I'll be taking 3-4 when finalized.
 
Hey guys, I've had some discussion with Sal about the artwork. I think we're going to have to stay away from some of the inlay elements. There are still chips like this one that are in current use:

That said, I think Sal has some great options that will still be a good thematic match for the Cleveland chips.

A second point is that somebody needs to volunteer to track and re-ship orders for this GB to happen. I didn't pick up a playable set, so I'll be sitting this one out.
 
Any way we could get a horseshoe on the rolling edge between the "dealer"?
 
Anybody got the dimensions that this dealer button will be. I'm designing a case for it with custom foam so I need that width and depth info. Thanks.

Lets keep as close as we can. Take the city off, make the shoe bigger, arch the "Horseshoe" a bit and let's get them made!

Inlay elements?
 
yup, that's about right. Received my DB today. I think I am sticking with it until/if something better comes along. Here are some Empress DBs and some chips for size comparison:

Let me know if anyone is interested in this version of the button. I'll be removing the other images and replacing them with this one.

The inlay shape and colors can be changed. If there are any concerns please let me know. We can also replace the artist's representation of the horseshoe with a different horseshoe.

That design looks fine to me!

Any interest in adding "The Shoe". That is what most people in Cleveland called it and would refer to it as anyways.
