They were more likely the house 'bank' and when the game folded they were left.<br />I am more surprised that they are still there because old gambling chips are now worth far more than face value to collectors. Why are they not stolen, I don't know.Edhttp://edwardfrey.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5988186310250612269.post-57613591321302110182010-09-26T17:56:05.666-07:002010-09-26T17:56:05.666-07:00Love the pictures and the story.

We live in southern Oregon and have been all the various places you've been (lived in Portland for many year). We were in Bodie, CA just a couple years ago. Had been there some 40 years ago, then camped near Bridgeport- up in the mountains. Bodie is still a wonderful "find" after all these years. And your pictures really tell the story.<br /><br />BarbBarbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17952767888344240054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5988186310250612269.post-65560418293478237592010-09-25T20:42:57.367-07:002010-09-25T20:42:57.367-07:00amazing place!
