GOAL: To assemble two matching racks of any of the following mustard-base chips:
— CDI ’98 1000
— FLV $1000
— Gardena $10s
— Appleton $1s
— CDM 5s
I’m open to trading or buying to get there.
I already have a rack of the CDM5s, and a rack of the Steve Appletons. They are an almost perfect match, but the green spot colors turn out to be slightly different which triggers my chipper OCD. Apparently there is only one rack of the SfSA’s in existence.
Below is a visual of the spots on these four chips. It is hard to know to what extent oiling, wear, and batches account for the spot variations, but it appears that my FLV sample is closer to the Appletons, and the CDI ’98s are more like the CDM 5s:
L-R: CDI, FLV, SfSA, CDM
So again, whether by trade or purchase, I would like to get to two closely-matching racks.
In addition to the racks mentioned here, I have some other possible trade material.
