Rare Mold Sourcing (2 Viewers)

Update time! I've been getting a few lucky breaks lately despite not searching too obsessively. This will be broken down into 3 parts:
  1. Found chips, either purchased or available to purchase online (mostly china clay or plastic sold in 25x quantity)
  2. Chips I'd really like to find, interesting/vintage/historic
  3. Chips I don't have but sort of don't care about... boring plastic, weird one-off's, etc

  2. MD-55a, weird "16" Dots. Have never seen it

  4. MD-13a "Steamship"
  5. Sun - likely B&G
  6. M - appears to be clay? Possibly a Matusi clay?

I haven't nailed down categorization yet, and I know it'll never be perfect, but that's one obstacle I need to work through to get this sorted out. Current collection on the big board, considering slotting them all into these little display racks to better bunch it up into a smaller working space.

Of course the final goal is a well organized and easily searchable / sortable website, so the physical layout doesn't particularly matter.
