The USPC Co. sold 2400 of these chips in eight colors to the Hemenway & Moses Co., Salt Lake City, Utah, on 6/3/1937.

The chips may have been ordered for one of their customers, or possibly used by them. The Hemenway & Moser Co. owned several cigar stores and beer parlors, one of which was raided in 1935 with a slot machine confiscated, and in 1938 the company applied for a license to operate "skill games" in its establishments (see Archives).
