Mason delivered these chips (between 1935 and 1938 per Mason die records) to Cook & Wickstrom, 530 Market Street, San Francisco, CA. This was the location of a cigar store operated by Thomas William Cook and Alfred Duke Wickstrom beginning around 1936 and to about 1942. (Pinball games, likely used as gambling devices, were confiscated at this location in 1937.)

These chips had previously been erroneously attributed to the Owl Club, Battle Mountain, NV.
