Putting together a solid THC tournament sent and want to do an old school Vegas inlay. I have a designer lined up just looking for ideas. I have these two but would appreciate any ideas you may have. Just need to be old school and cool

No ideas at this point but I like where you’re going with it here

Will probably just pick one casino and so far these are the two options. Thought about multiple casinos or one for each denom but that would require a lot more design work

Digging the mint. Following.

I was thinking the mint with “The Mint” matching the color of the chip.

I like the Mint also. It has a classic look. On the other hand, it seems like the Aladdin would allow for a lot more of a creative design if that’s what you’re looking for.

I've always been a fan of the Stardust look. It's retro 50's 60's with a cartoony space theme. It's the Jetson's casino! Rrokay Rrorge!

Did someone say old school Vegas? Love it. Can’t wait to see what you come up with. Here’s one to consider

Agreed, Stardust is old school classic Vegas
The mint for sure! Or thunderbirds
Okay, not Vegas.... But pretty freaking rad.
I'd rather go with something that is reminiscent of Old Vegas, but not a name of a property that actually existed in the first 20 years of the Strip's development. Make up a name that conjures up the Americana culture of that period, and use old style label art for sure.

Forgot about the Thunderbird. Good call!

I did these as a label project a while back...
There was a solid relabeled "The Mint" set that sold on eBay a while back. I think the guy milled and labeled them himself or something.
It was a really nice looking set IIRC.

I think there is a lot of opportunity to do something with The Mint. Great idea.
Just to clarify is this a mixed set or a set with one inlay across all denoms? I always favour a unified set rather than a mixed set. So many good options. I really like Stardust, Riviera, El Rancho, and really any of the old school spots.
I am not super in love with the mint inlay but who knows.
Another idea would be to rework an old inlay and use that to create an old school yet truly unique set.

I’ve always thought the Mint was the coolest old school casino and chips around.
