Traded Oldschool cash set, pre-milled for your labeling pleasure (1 Viewer)

[Taghkanic]

FOR SALE: 919 + vintage ASM H-mold solids, expertly milled by @Josh Kifer , just itching for some retro-style labels (or new hotstamps).

Two vintage cases included!

PRICE: $1,325 + $75 shipping and insurance in U.S. only (see below).

BREAKDOWN:

• 100 Orange
• 219 Cream
• 482 Red
• 90 Green
• 28 Brown

CONDITION: These vintage ASMs are obviously not mint—they’ve seen plenty of use—but the formula used back in the day seems to have been a lot harder than contemporary chips. So the edges and faces are in very good shape. The cream-colored $1s show some color variation and could use a cleaning. There are also a few modest spinners among the $1s, but there are 19 extra to choose from if you want to thin these down to two racks (or else flatten them). The colors are richer in person than these pics suggest.

SHIPPING: As with my other sales, I much prefer to ship within the U.S. to avoid the various hassles and vagaries of international shipping. I will, however, entertain overseas purchases with the understanding that he buyer is taking on risk and additional insurance and shipping costs TBD. This is a dibs sale, but I reserve the rights to sell to a U.S. buyer if there is a prior foreign bid.

BACKSTORY: I have had these a long time—my first “real” chips, and finally got them milled during the pandemic. With that cost & purchase price I am making pretty much zilch on these. But they are very handsome and they ought to go to a good home where they will get played and appreciated...

Thanks for looking! I’ll post some images of these in the cases in comments.

And here is a mock-up I did (moment of madness) of some silly label concepts, just to show what they might look like with new inlays...

Here’s an example of a more sober label on an H-mold…

How do I nominate Hot Dog Hallway to the HOF?

In case my suggestion wasn’t unsubtle enough, I think inlays on H-molds should be titled by words starting with H

Needs a Hungry Hungry Hippos label, imo

$50 price drop…

(After mocking up those labels I’m getting tempted to keep these as a travel set. Someone grab ’em and save me from myself!)

Frick! I love these older unique-mold ASM chips. If I had any personal connection to an 'H' theme I'd be all over them. GLWS!

Everyone has an H in their life... Just need to dig deep and get creative!

I love these old school chips. I spent way too long looking for H themes and trying to justify buying another project. Someone please buy these so I can stop thinking about them.

PS: Doesn’t even have to H theme, a lot of old school casino’s were on H mold.

But Harvey’s and Hacienda would be cool too if you wanted casino than custom. And someone here made an awesome Harold’s before too.

One more price drop (down another $50) before these go back in the vault!
