RARE Vintage Renfield Blue Chips Advertising Bakelite Chip and Card Set. This is an extremely hard to find complete set of 100 chips plus original two sets of 54 Renfield Blue Chips playing cards. 52 regular cards, one joker and one liquor advertising card. Renfield Blue Chips was a liquor distributor out of New York and imported many liquors from Europe and this boxed set was for advertising purposes.
There are 40 cream colored, 30 red and 30 black. There were never any blue chips.This is an original complete boxed set. All the chips are stamped Blue Chips by Renfield on both sides. The chips themselves are in great shape considering their age (circa 1940s). It appears that the cards were used more for games other than poker because they show more wear than the chips.
The chips pictured are representative condition of most of the chips in the set. The cardboard box cover is in sad shape but the remainder of the box and separate drawer for the two sets of cards are in fair to good condition. Cover has been scotch taped by prior owner. If you are a bakelite, poker or advertising collector, here is the ENTIRE set of 100 plus the cards for your collection. As usual, my photography is wanting so please be sure to take a good look at all the attached photos to get a better sense of condition value.I encourage you to get in touch with any questions or requests for additional photos. I always leave appropriate feedback and will, of course, always appreciate yours.
